Harry Kane scored as Bayern Munich dominated second-division side Ulm in the German Cup, marking a successful debut for new manager Vincent Kompany. In his first match in charge of Bayern, Kompany witnessed his team deliver an impressive performance with England captain Kane securing the 4-0 win with a late goal. Bayern asserted their dominance early on in the match.

Thomas Müller opened the scoring with two quick goals in the first half, setting the tone for the rest of the game. Kingsley Coman added a third goal late in the game, with former Crystal Palace midfielder Michael Olise providing the assist. Harry Kane, who has quickly adapted to life in Germany since his high-profile transfer, capped off the scoring with a well-taken goal in the closing stages, further solidifying Bayern’s control over the match.

Kompany joined Bayern Munich after the club endured a challenging season, finishing without a trophy for the first time since 2012. The former Burnley manager took over in the summer to help restore the club’s winning ways and ensure they remain competitive on all fronts. This convincing win in the German Cup represents a positive start for Kompany as he aims to lead Bayern back to glory.

Bayern Munich, who hold a record 20 German Cup titles, struggled in recent years, failing to progress beyond the quarter-finals since their treble-winning season in 2019-20. This victory over Ulm, a team that earned promotion to the second division last season after a 23-year absence, provides a much-needed confidence boost as Bayern looks to reclaim their dominance in German football.
