BAYERN MUNICH BEATS DINAMO ZAGREB 9-2 – Kane sets record for the most goals by one team in a Champions League match

Harry Kane scored four goals to lead his side to a 9-2 win over visitors Dinamo Zagreb and a record for the most goals by one team in a Champions League match along with the second-biggest winning margin.

Bayern struck three times in the first half with Kane converting a 19th minute penalty before becoming the highest scoring English player in European Cup history with 33 goals.

With Zagreb completely boxed in, Raphael Guerreiro drilled home from a superb Jamal Musiala assist in the 33rd and Michael Olise added another five minutes later. The Croats bounced back with goals from Bruno Petkovic in the 49th and Takuya Ogiwara a minute later. 

Bayern upped the tempo and scored two more of their own in a four-minute span through Kane and Olise to restore order.

In coach Vincent Kompany’s Champions League debut at the helm, England captain Kane bagged his third and fourth goals with penalties in the 73rd and 78th to become the first player to score a hat-trick of penalties in a Champions League match.

Substitutes Leroy Sane and Leon Goretzka also got on the scoresheet with late goals as Bayern opened their Champions League campaign in devastating fashion.
