Olise saves Bayern after Kane skies penalty

Michael Olise proved to be the difference maker for Bayern Munich as his stunning strike secured a 1-0 victory over struggling Wolfsburg at the Volkswagen Arena. The win provided a much-needed boost for Vincent Kompany’s side following their disappointing Champions League exit at the hands of Paris Saint-Germain. However, the headlines were nearly stolen by Harry Kane, who saw a rare moment of fallibility from the penalty spot.

Luis Enrique dodges question on PSG tactic to stop Olise

Luis Enrique has remained tight-lipped regarding a bizarre tactical instruction given to goalkeeper Matvey Safonov during Paris Saint-Germain's Champions League semi-final triumph over Bayern Munich, which saw the French side progress with a 6-5 aggregate victory.

Arsenal, beware - 'Kvaradona' looks unstoppable right now

Paris Saint-Germain endured an agonising wait before finally lifting the European Cup, but 12 months after winning their first, they've got a glorious chance to collect their second after edging out Bayern Munich 6-5 on aggregate in an absorbing semi-final tie.
