Bayern Munich showcased their dominance in the Bundesliga with a convincing 3-0 victory over Union Berlin. Harry Kane was the star of the show, scoring two goals and assisting another to secure the win. This victory extends Bayern's lead at the top of the Bundesliga table by three points, following Leipzig's 2-1 loss to Borussia Dortmund.
Bayern Munich has been in exceptional form, winning their last four games against German opponents in both the league and cup without conceding a single goal. However, their performance in Europe has been less consistent, with two recent losses in the Champions League, including a 4-1 defeat against Barcelona.
Kane opened the scoring for Bayern from the penalty spot after a foul on Michael Olise, before setting up Kingsley Coman for the second goal just before halftime. The English striker then added a third goal by beating his own teammate Jamal Musiala to the ball, capitalizing on Coman's header.
With this win, Kane has now scored 17 goals in all competitions this season, with 11 of those coming in the Bundesliga alone, surpassing the goal tally of three teams in the league, including Union Berlin.
Dortmund Ends Losing Streak with Comeback Victory
Borussia Dortmund halted their three-game losing streak across all competitions with a resilient 2-1 comeback win against Leipzig. Despite facing an injury crisis and fielding a depleted squad, Dortmund managed to turn the game around after Benjamin Sesko put Leipzig in the lead.
Maximilian Beier quickly equalized for Dortmund before Serhou Guirassy headed in the winning goal in the 65th minute. This victory not only ended Dortmund's poor run but also provided a much-needed boost for coach Nuri Sahin.
