Harry Kane continues to deliver at world-class level and once again leads FC Bayern in the Champions League. In the second leg of the round of 16 tie against Bergamo, the Englishman put Munich on course early on – and set a historic record in the process
With a converted penalty at the second attempt and a spectacular shot from distance, Kane scored two goals for the record-breaking champions and once again underlined his importance to Bayern’s attacking play. It was a goal with a signal effect – not only for the game, but also for his already impressive season record
The goal against Bergamo was his 47th goal of the current season – scored in just 39 competitive matches. The 32-year-old not only leads FC Bayern’s internal goalscoring charts by a wide margin, but also sets new standards across Europe
No player from Europe’s top five leagues can currently boast a better goal tally, putting Kane at the top of the international rankings and confirming his exceptional position in world soccer week after week
This mark also marks a new personal record in the professional game: never before has the England international scored so many goals in a season – further proof of his exceptional consistency and finishing power

Life insurance for FC Bayern
Kane has long been more than just a goalscorer for FC Bayern. The attacker has become the central figure in the attacking play and is carrying the team through the decisive phase of the season with his presence, efficiency and experience
Looking ahead to the coming weeks, Kane is once again likely to play a key role following his injury lay-off. Bayern are on course for the quarter-finals and, with their top striker, have a player in their ranks who can make the difference at any time
The numbers speak for themselves: 46 goals in 39 games is not just impressive – it’s historic – and it looks like this extraordinary run is far from over.
