Harry Kane delivered a stunning performance for Bayern Munich, securing a hat-trick against Borussia Dortmund, and Adam Bate had the privilege of witnessing it for Sky Sports. In conversations with both current and former Bayern players, he examines how the England captain has rapidly become the linchpin of the team.

“I expected great things from him,” Jamal Musiala states, “but not to this extent. Playing alongside him is even smoother than I had imagined. I’m thrilled.” This sentiment resonates throughout Bayern Munich as they revel in Harry Kane’s recent hat-trick against Borussia Dortmund.

While Musiala shares his thoughts, a grinning Kane has already settled into his seat on the team bus, not quite alone, with the match ball as his humble companion, tucked away in a simple plastic carrier bag. It’s a sight marked by its unassuming nature, much like the goals that dismantled Dortmund.

These goals weren’t works of art from the halfway line, like his second against Darmstadt the prior weekend. Instead, they included a straightforward tap-in and two instances where he faced Gregor Kobel at close range. Inevitable.

With an impressive 15 goals in 10 Bundesliga matches, Kane has proven to be a prolific striker, with a remarkable three goals every two games. Bayern Munich has witnessed exceptional strikers in its history, including Gerd Muller, whom they consider the best. Robert Lewandowski even surpassed Muller’s Bundesliga record for goals in a single season, with an astonishing 41.

However, Kane’s current form poses a serious challenge to that record, with a projected total of 51 goals.

Speaking to Lothar Matthaus before the match, when Dortmund still held hopes that Kane might show them mercy, the Bayern legend explained why the arrival of the English captain has been so vital, even for a club that has claimed 11 consecutive Bundesliga titles.

“For Bayern Munich, having a strong No. 9 is crucial, and it’s important for German football in general. A quality No. 9 can lead you to championships,” says Matthaus. “We witnessed it with Lewandowski in Munich and Dortmund. In German football, a No. 9 is indispensable.”

He humorously concludes, “When you have such overwhelming ball possession in the attacking zone, you need someone who can consistently score.” Matthaus is well aware of the self-evident nature of his statement and chuckles, saying, “I believe Harry Kane knows precisely what to do, and he has executed it brilliantly in his first three months here.”
