WHAT HAPPENED?
Harry Kane delivered a stunning four-goal performance in Bayern Munich's 9-2 demolition of Dinamo Zagreb during their Champions League opener on Tuesday. Despite the emphatic win, the England captain urged his team to remain vigilant. Kane, 31, expressed concern over their slow start to the second half, which saw them concede two quick goals. He warned that such lapses could lead to punishment against stronger opponents.
WHAT HARRY KANE SAID
Speaking to DAZN, Kane reflected: "It was an amazing game. The first half went really well, and we capitalized on our chances. However, we didn't start the second half well and got caught out a couple of times. We’ll need to learn from that. Our response afterward was strong, but we can’t afford that kind of sluggishness against top teams, or we’ll get punished."
THE BIGGER PICTURE
Bayern Munich have maintained a perfect winning streak this season, determined to bounce back from a disappointing, trophyless 2023/24 campaign. Tuesday’s victory set a new milestone, with Bayern becoming the first team to score nine goals in a Champions League match, while Kane became the highest-scoring English player in the competition’s history. Kane’s blistering form, with nine goals in five games across all competitions, will be crucial for Bayern’s title ambitions in 2024/25.
WHAT'S NEXT?
Bayern return to Bundesliga action on Saturday before hosting reigning league champions Bayer Leverkusen on September 28. Their next Champions League clash will be against Aston Villa on October 2.
