Bayern Munich delivered a clinical 6-1 thrashing over Atalanta in the UEFA Champions League Round of 16 first leg on March 10, 2026, at Gewiss Stadium, virtually securing their quarterfinal spot with Michael Olise starring via a dazzling brace.
Olise’s Brilliance Lights Up Bayern Rout
Olise scored screamers in the 22nd and 64th minutes, joined on the scoresheet by Josip Stanisic (12′), Serge Gnabry (25′), Nicolas Jackson (52′), and Jamal Musiala (67′), while Mario Pasalic’s 90’+3′ consolation did little for stunned hosts. Bayern dominated with 69.4% possession, 25 shots (13 on target), and 7 corners against Atalanta’s feeble response.
Injury Cloud Over Dominant Display
Alphonso Davies exited in tears with a fresh injury, but Bayern’s attack overwhelmed, creating 10 chances to Atalanta’s 3 in a ruthless showcase of Vincent Kompany’s high-flying side absent Harry Kane. Second leg at Allianz Arena looms as formality.
