Harry Kane had a hat-trick last Saturday and now he has another one today. With 17 goals in 14 games for Bayern Munich, Kane’s performance has been outstanding. In fact, this is his third hat-trick for his new club. Simply remarkable.

Peter Oh describes the Bayern kit as an interesting combination of colors, reminiscent of strawberries and cream. He humorously suggests that it should be called “Strawberries and Kane” due to the smooth performance of the Englishman.

FULL TIME: Dortmund 0-4 Bayern

Bayern Munich dominated the match against Dortmund, with Harry Kane leading the charge. From the start, Dortmund never seemed to be in the game as they conceded a goal in the fourth minute to an Upamecano header. After that, Kane took control and displayed great chemistry with his teammates Sané, Musiala, and Coman. Dortmund had the chance to turn the tide of this rivalry, but they were easily brushed aside by Bayern Munich.

I forgot to mention earlier that Sané deserves credit for the corner that led to Upamecano’s goal. It was a perfect delivery, right on target and with pace. All it needed was a touch, and it was destined for the net.
