Harry Kane smashes 60-year-old Bundesliga record
Englishman Harry Kane has had a remarkable debut Bundesliga season – at least from an individual angle. On Saturday afternoon, Kane smashed a 60-year-old record with his goal-scoring prowess.
In a stunning debut season for Bayern Munich, Harry Kane has etched his name in Bundesliga history books by surpassing a record that stood for over six decades.
Harry Kane broke a 60-year record for most goals in a debut season while Jamal Musiala scored twice as Bayern Munich won 5-2 at Darmstadt on Saturday.
With 31 goals in 26 league games since arriving from Spurs in the summer, Kane overtook German legend Uwe Seeler, who scored 30 goals for Hamburg in 1963-64.
Musiala also had an assist in the win, which keeps Bayern’s slim hopes of defending the Bundesliga title alive, moving them seven points behind Bayer Leverkusen, who play at Freiburg on Sunday.
Harry Kane’s Bundesliga campaign took an unfortunate turn as he suffered an ankle injury in that game.
England captain, Harry Kane was replaced after colliding with a post. The setback puts his participation in upcoming fixtures, including England’s friendlies against Brazil and Belgium, in jeopardy.
