Since joining Bayern, Kane has broken several records, becoming the fastest player in the club's history to reach 75, 100, and 150 goals across all competitions. His two goals against Union Berlin bring his total to 156 in 156 appearances, demonstrating his exceptional scoring ability.
“I’m very proud to reach 101 Bundesliga goals,” Kane commented to Sky Germany, expressing his enjoyment playing alongside teammates like Michael Olise, Luis Diaz, and Jamal Musiala. “To have more goals than games is obviously a great stat to have,” he added.
When asked about his contract status, which expires at the end of the season, and his potential presence at the Champions League final in Munich in 2028, Kane said, “I’m extremely happy here. The talks are ongoing and they’ll be ongoing for the near future. You can see the way I’m playing and the way I connect with the fans. Munich in 2028? Maybe. It’ll be a special one.”
Despite Kane's achievements, Michael Olise stood out with a hat trick against the winless team. Bayern marked the onset of Oktoberfest with a special kit, showcasing a celebratory atmosphere from the start.
The scoring began in the 18th minute with Jamal Musiala's explosive goal. Kane's penalty in the 39th minute came after Olise was fouled, marking his milestone goal. Bayern quickly extended their lead before halftime with Olise’s curling shot into the top corner.
Bayern continued to dominate in the second half, with Olise assisting Kane for his second goal in the 54th minute. New signing Ismael Saibari scored soon after coming on, followed by Olise's second and third goals, the latter a stunning shot from outside the box.
Bayern sporting director Max Eberl expressed some disappointment about a short break coming up, saying, “We wanted to go into the international break with an impressive result. We managed that. The team showed that when we play at that level, it’s hard to keep up with us.”
The victory marks Bayern's largest margin since their 8-1 win over Wolfsburg in January, temporarily putting them at the top of the Bundesliga table, with Freiburg and Borussia Dortmund potentially overtaking them with matches scheduled for Saturday.
