Harry Kane extended his magic for Bayern Munich on Friday, scoring two goals to become the first player to score 100 goals for Bayern in 104 appearances. The English striker now holds the record for the quickest player to hit 100 goals for a club in Europe’s top five leagues, breaking Cristiano Ronaldo and Erling Haaland, who did it in 105 games.
Harry Kane’s Record-Breaking Performance
Kane’s double ensured Bayern Munich their immaculate start to the Bundesliga campaign with a commanding 4-0 victory over Werder Bremen. Already averaging two goals a match in the new season, Kane achieved his milestone with breath-taking economy. His initial goal was a penalty on the stroke of halftime, after Bremen’s Marco Friedl committed a foul on him inside the box. Kane’s 100th goal came at the twenty-minute mark of the second half with a side-footed finish from a pass by Luis Diaz.
Bayern Munich’s Dominance in Bundesliga
Bayern’s attacking performance was not one-dimensional when it came to Kane. Jonathan Tah scored the opener in the 22nd minute with a delicate backheel off Luis Diaz’s cross. Then, Konrad Laimer completed the scoring in the 87th minute after a nicely built team move. Bayern maintained their perfect league start with their fifth successive win and toasted the first weekend of Oktoberfest in style.
Kompany Salutes Harry Kane’s Overall Contribution
Bayern manager Vincent Kompany praised Kane’s overall contribution more than his goal-scoring achievement. “I always tell people to watch his defensive work and how much he runs back as well. He’s broken this record but he’s done it while contributing so much to the team,” Kompany explained. Kane’s dedication to the team, both in defense and in attack, has been a key factor in Bayern’s unbeaten start to the season.

I love playing here in front of the supporters, I love the team and the manager, so it’s not even in my mindset at all,” he replied.
