  • Giannis Konstantelias made his Bayern Munich debut, winning the German Super Cup against Dortmund.
  • After the match, Konstantelias asked teammate Michael Olise for his jersey, but Olise initially seemed unaware of who he was.
  • Olise later appeared to realize his mistake and will likely learn more about the promising Greek midfielder.

Giannis Konstantelias marked his debut for Bayern Munich with a German Super Cup victory over Dortmund, but a post-match interaction with teammate Michael Olise provided a moment of intrigue. The Greek attacking midfielder approached the French star, who had scored Bayern's second goal and was named Man of the Match, to ask for his jersey.

Olise initially appeared to respond that he would give Konstantelias the jersey in the locker room. However, as Konstantelias walked away, Olise turned to look at his jersey, seemingly not having recognized the player who had just asked for it. This moment, captured on video, highlighted the potential unfamiliarity between the two players.

Despite the initial confusion, Olise will likely become well-acquainted with Konstantelias. The young Greek talent made a strong impression in his first official game for Bayern, having only recently joined the team and undergone a few training sessions. His performance suggests he is a player to watch.

He will probably learn to know Konstantelias very well soon.
