Harry Kane netted a landmark goal for BayernCredit: GettyKane took just 12 minutes to find the back of the net.
Picking up the ball from Michael Olise on the edge of the box, Kane drilled a left-footed effort into the bottom corner of the net to put them 1-0 up.
Incredibly, that was the 60th Bundesliga goal scored by the attacker, a tally that he’s reached in just 60 games.
That means that Kane is averaging a goal every game in the German top flight.

It was also his 80th strike in total for Bayern.
Not only that, but Kane’s effort made him the only player in Europe’s top five leagues to score more than 50 in the last two seasons.
With 60 goals since the summer of 2023, Kane is 11 goals clear of his nearest rival – Kylian Mbappe – who has 49.
Erling Haaland and Mohamed Salah are also way behind on 48 and 45 respectively.
Kane’s first half strike was the opener in what proved to be a dominant win for Bayern.

Joshua Kimmich rounded off the win to make it 4-0 in the second half.
Victory takes Bayern to 72 points, nine ahead of Bayer Leverkusen with just four matches remaining.
While Leverkusen have a game in hand, just seven more points would guarantee a first piece of major silverware for Kane.
The Bundesliga represents Kane’s last chance of silverware during the regular 2024/25 season.
Bayern have already been eliminated from the DFB-Pokal and the Champions League after being seen off by Inter Milan midweek.
