  "account": "Michael Olise proved to be Bayern Munich's standout performer in their 2-1 victory over former Bundesliga rivals Borussia Dortmund in the German Supercup opener on Saturday. The Nigerian defender not only scored a goal but also provided an assist, showcasing his attacking prowess down the right flank. Nathaniel Brown, a makeshift midfielder, was instrumental in opening the scoring for Bayern in the 28th minute, while Olise netted his own goal just before halftime. Despite a late goal from former Wolves striker Fabio Silva, the away victory marked a promising start to the season for Bayern, who claimed their 12th Supercup title, a record in a row since the tournament's name change to honor club legend Franz Beckenbauer in 2025. Coach Vincent Kompany emphasized the team's determination to maintain their winning form, dismissing suggestions of a decline following last year's dominance. Bayern's selection choices, including Brown in midfield and Olise in defense, proved effective, with Brown contributing to the opening goal and Olise sealing the win with his second goal. Despite efforts from a resurgent Dortmund, led by Daniel Svensson's cross and Fabio Silva's late header, Bayern held firm to secure a significant win for the season.",
