Bayern 5-1 Shakhtar (Dec 10, 2024) Game Analysis - ESPN

Michael Olise netted a second-half brace as Bayern Munich came back from conceding an early goal to win 5-1 against Shakhtar Donetsk in the Champions League on Tuesday, their first away victory in this season’s competition.

Shakhtar went ahead in the fifth minute through Kevin but Bayern levelled six minutes later with Konrad Laimer scoring and they took the lead with a Thomas Muller goal on the stroke of half time.

A penalty converted by Olise in the 70th minute eased the Bayern nerves before Jamal Musiala added a fourth goal three minutes from time and Olise netted again in added time to round off the win.

Bayern’s third successive win moves them up to eighth in the standings on 12 points while Shakhtar are in 27th on four points.
