Bayern Munich 4-0 Werder Bremen: Kane reaches century of goals in record time

Harry Kane reached a century of Bayern Munich goals as his brace helped maintain the Bundesliga giants’ perfect start to the season in a 4-0 victory over Werder Bremen.

Kane opened his account on the stroke of half-time from the penalty spot, before striking his landmark goal in the 65th minute with a composed finish past Karl Hein.

The England international, who joined Bayern in 2023, has hit 100 goals for the club in just 104 matches across all competitions, quicker than any other player to achieve that feat across Europe’s top five leagues in the 21st century.

Bayern did, however, hit the front through an unfamiliar source in Jonathan Tah, who flicked Michael Olise’s teasing delivery into the box home in the 22nd minute, despite Luis Diaz appearing to get the final touch.

Vincent Kompany’s side were then offered the chance to double their lead before the break when Marco Friedl clumsily brought down Kane inside the area, with the Bayern talisman dusting himself down to send Hein the wrong way from 12 yards.

Kane then hit his century just after the hour following good work from Diaz down the left, with the 32-year-old picking out the bottom-right corner from inside the penalty area.

It got even better for Bayern three minutes from time when Konrad Laimer, on his first start of the season, collected Tom Bischof’s brilliant ball into the box from the left, before finishing left-footed into the far corner.
