Bayern’s Michael Olise Sent Off for 2 Yellow Cards Within Seconds in Champions League – WTOP News

  • On Tuesday, October 20, Manchester City manager Enzo Maresca rested Erling Haaland for the Champions League match against AEK Athens, keeping the striker as an unused substitute after he picked up a knock during Saturday's 3-2 win over Ipswich Town.
  • Haaland sustained a foot knock in the final moments of the Ipswich Town fixture when he attempted to wrap up the match in injury time. Maresca had considered rotation regardless, mindful of the Norwegian's demanding workload across all competitions.
  • Forward Antoine Semenyo faces an eight-week absence with a knee injury from the same weekend match, forcing City to deploy 17-year-old Floyd Samba in the European fixture, normally a midfielder operating as a central striker.
  • Phil Foden scored a hat-trick as City eased to a 5-1 victory over the Greek outfit on Tuesday night, demonstrating the squad's depth despite the injury setbacks and providing momentum ahead of Premier League action.
  • Ahead of Saturday's Premier League trip to Aston Villa, Maresca confirmed Haaland is expected to be available, seeing little need to introduce the striker midweek given the comfortable European victory.
