Harry Kane scored a hat-trick as Bayern Munich triumphed over newly promoted Holstein Kiel with an emphatic 5-1 victory reclaiming the top spot in the Bundesliga. Bayern made a stunning start with Kane helping Jamal Musiala score the joint second-fastest goal in Bundesliga history, just 13 seconds into the match. This goal was only surpassed by Giovane Elber’s 11-second strike for Bayern against Hamburg in 1998.
Moreover, Kane’s first-half performance was dominant, as he netted twice around an own goal from Nicolai Remberg. The England captain’s first goal came after Musiala capitalized on a defensive mishap and set up Kane. Subsequently, Kane curled in a superb second from 20 yards following Remberg’s own goal. Former Crystal Palace forward Michael Olise scored his first goal for Bayern after the break.
He finished a rebound from an Alphonso Davies shot. Harry Kane rounded off the scoring with a penalty in stoppage time, marking his fifth hat-trick for Bayern Munich and completing the 5-0 scoreline. Despite their defeat, Holstein Kiel managed to score a late consolation goal through Armin Gigovic, who headed in their first home league goal of the season.
As a result, Kiel in their inaugural Bundesliga season, have yet to earn a point while Bayern Munich under Vincent Kompany’s management have won all three of their league games so far. Furthermore, Kane’s hat-trick means he has now scored against every team he has faced in the Bundesliga. His performance highlights Bayern’s strong form and reaffirms his crucial role in their attacking lineup.
