In a scintillating display of goal-scoring prowess, Harry Kane propelled Bayern Munich to the top of the Bundesliga with a 1-0 victory over Cologne. The English forward’s remarkable form has seen him break records and establish himself as a force to be reckoned with in German football.
Kane’s Record-breaking Run
Harry Kane’s impact on Bayern Munich has been nothing short of extraordinary. With his goal against Cologne, Kane has now scored an astonishing 18 goals in just 12 league games, setting a new record for the most goals scored in the opening 12 matches of a Bundesliga season. This feat surpasses the previous record held by legendary German striker Gerd Muller.
Not only has Kane been prolific, but he has also been consistent. Averaging a goal every 66 minutes, the 30-year-old has been a constant threat to opposition defenses. Only two teams, Borussia Mönchengladbach and Freiburg, have managed to keep him off the scoresheet so far this season.
Bayern Munich’s Rise to the Top
With Kane leading the charge, Bayern Munich has surged to the top of the Bundesliga standings. The defending champions are now on 32 points, one ahead of early-season leaders Bayer Leverkusen. This victory puts pressure on Leverkusen, who can reclaim first place with a win against Werder Bremen on Saturday.
Kane’s Impact on Bayern Munich
Since joining Bayern Munich from Tottenham Hotspur in August, Kane has been a revelation for the German giants. His 18 goals account for more than half of Bayern’s total of 34 goals this season, highlighting his importance to the team. Additionally, Kane has provided two assists, further showcasing his all-around contribution to the team’s success.
