The Prague Post - Kane hits Bundesliga century as Bayern rout Union

Kane scored his 100th and 101st goals in just 98 domestic games, obliterating the previous record set by Cologne's Dieter Mueller in 1977 by 31 games.

It's the latest record that the England captain has torn up during his time in Munich, having already become the fastest Bayern player to reach 75, 100 and 150 goals in all competitions.

Kane’s double means he now has scored 156 goals in 156 games for Bayern in domestic and international games combined — an unparalleled statistic.

But France star Michael Olise was the star on the night, scoring a fine hat-trick against the winless Bundesliga strugglers.

Wearing a special kit to celebrate the start of Oktoberfest, it was clear that Bayern were in party mood from the start.

They took the lead in the 18th minute with an explosive opener by Jamal Musiala. Alphonso Davies cut the ball back to Musiala on the edge of the box, and the German let fly with a bullet shot that left Frederik Ronnow with no chance.

Soon after Luis Diaz had a goal chalked off for offside, Kane's moment arrived from the penalty spot. Union defender Tom Rothe brushed a boot against Olise, giving Kane the chance to slam the penalty home for his milestone strike.

Bayern quickly turned two into three before half-time through a fine strike by Olise, who took Musiala’s pass first time, stylishly caressing it into the top corner from the edge of the box — but the best from Olise was yet to come.

An early second-half flurry forced Manuel Neuer into two saves in quick succession. The first saw him deny a golden chance for Janik Haberer. Just four goals scored and 17 conceded in their opening four games of the season tells its own story for Union, who are still chasing their first win of the new campaign.

Haberer's miss was as good as it got for the visitors, who went 4-0 down in the 54th minute when Olise was allowed to pick out Kane with a sumptuous cross from the right, inviting Kane to glance in his second of the night.

Bayern coach Vincent Kompany sent on Ismael Saibari just after the hour and within seven minutes he scored his first Bayern goal. Davies, the provider again, found the Morocco star, who shrugged off his marker and thumped in Bayern's fifth.

Olise added his second of the night three minutes later to make it six, beating the offside trap, rounding Ronnow, and sending his shot in off the near post.

Despite Kane's record-breaking exploits, Olise was the main attraction here in Munich. The Frenchman secured his hat-trick another three minutes later bending in a stunning shot from outside the box after Tom Bishof had teed him up.

This ruthless victory is Bayern's biggest margin of victory since their 8-1 win over Wolfsburg in January and, for now, puts the champions top of the table.

Freiburg and Borussia Dortmund, the only teams with 100% records this season, can return to the Bundesliga summit on Saturday when they take on Eintracht Frankfurt and Stuttgart respectively.
