Michael Olise stole the show in Bayern Munich’s 7-0 drubbing of Union Berlin, registering a hat-trick—his first in Bayern colors—and an assist for one of Harry Kane’s two goals. Although Olise avoided the interview intended for the Man of the Match (which he earned with 88% of the popular vote), the Frenchman received a present from one of his idols: former FC Barcelona, Paris Saint-Germain and Brazil winger Neymar:
In the series of clips, Brazilian journalist Isabela Pagliari, who was in Munich to cover the match, handed Olise a signed Santos shirt from Neymar, who humbly asked for one thing in return: a signed shirt from Olise. The 24-year-old did just that, though it is a shame that it was the jarring “Oktoberfest” kit. Oh well, Neymar could always ask for more signed shirts.
The 34-year-old Brazilian, who has shown preference for Bayern players (notably Jamal Musiala), shares several standout qualities with Olise: ambidexterity, technical skills, and an eye for goal.
