"A 25-minute blitz in the first half of action in Bergamo saw Michael Olise and Serge Gnabry dominate proceedings. The demolition job was kicked off first with a smart corner-kick routine that saw the ball played short to the Germany international, who then proceeded to supply Josip Stanisic for a tap-in."
"What followed in the round of 16, however, was a sharp reminder of the sheer gulf between Kompany's Die Roten and Niko Kovac's runners-up-in-waiting."
"Michael Olise then later cut in on his favoured left outside the box before whipping the ball beyond goalkeeper Marco Carnesecchi's reach. Once Gnabry struck, as Olise turned provider, the tie was already, in truth, dead and buried at the 25-minute mark."
Bayern Munich secured a commanding 6-1 victory over Atalanta in Bergamo during the round of 16 clash. Michael Olise was the standout performer, recording three goal contributions as Vincent Kompany's side controlled the match. Bayern established dominance early with a devastating 25-minute spell in the first half, featuring goals from Serge Gnabry and Michael Olise. Additional goals came from Nicolas Jackson and Jamal Musiala. Despite the emphatic victory, Bayern suffered a setback when Alphonso Davies sustained an injury after coming on as a substitute. Olise will miss the return leg at the Allianz Arena due to a yellow card suspension.
