Kane equals 60-year-old record as eight-goal Bayern keep hopes alive



MUNICH: Harry Kane scored a hat-trick as Bayern Munich thumped Mainz 8-1 on Saturday, equalling a 60-year-old record and keeping alive his team’s hopes of catching leaders Bayer Leverkusen.
Kane, who also laid on two assists, now has 30 goals in his first season in Munich colors, matched the record for a maiden campaign set by German legend Uwe Seeler for Hamburg in 1963-64.
With nine games remaining, the England captain has also drawn nearer to the season record of 41 goals set by Bayern’s Robert Lewandowski in 2020-21.
