A 10.0 match rating tends to mean a player did almost everything right. For Michael Olise on Thursday night, that was close to the truth.
Bayern Munich beat Bodø/Glimt 5-0 in the Champions League, and Olise was the man pulling the strings from the first whistle. He finished with seven key passes, more than any other player on the pitch, and turned one of them into an assist.
Precision in numbers
Olise completed 52 of his 63 attempted passes, a busy night by any measure, but it was the quality rather than the quantity that stood out. Seven of those passes led directly to a shot for a teammate, a return that explains why Bayern kept finding gaps in the Bodø/Glimt defence all evening.
His single assist added the final touch to a personal display that ran through almost every attacking sequence Bayern produced.
Chief creator
Chances created rarely translate into a perfect rating on their own, but combined with the assist and the passing accuracy, Olise's night added up to about as complete a performance as a playmaker can produce. Bodø/Glimt never found an answer to him, and Bayern made sure the scoreline reflected it.
