His first goal came from the penalty spot just before halftime at the 45th minute, followed by another from open play in the 65th minute of the second half.
The additional goals contributing to the comprehensive win were scored by Jonathan Tah in the 22nd minute and Konrad Laimer, who scored in the 83rd minute. Jonathan Tah’s defensive efforts and his goal made him a standout player for Bayern during the match.
Harry Kane not only scored twice but also tested the opposing goalkeeper with a total of two shots on target, further demonstrating his offensive prowess at the Allianz Arena.
