Michael Olise - the crowd silencer

Olise faced a lot of jeering from the St. Pauli fans throughout the game. Whenever the Frenchman touched the ball, the Millerntor-Stadion erupted with boos. On the pitch, the home side always sent two players to deal with his dynamic dribbles. They were also not hesitant to commit hard fouls on the French forward.

In the end, not only did Bayern leave with all three points, but Olise also got his 12th goal of the season with a beautiful finish from outside the box. The way he responded also shows proper confidence: pointing to his ears as if he wants his haters to keep on going.

Michael Olise is pressure-resistant. It feels impossible to get into his head, even if Bayern is away at the Bernabeu or any Bundesliga stadiums. Boos are music to his ears.
