Harry Kane scores his 100th goal for Bayern in 104th game in win over Bremen

MUNICH (AP) — Harry Kane scored his 99th and 100th goals for Bayern Munich in his 104th game for the German champion as Bayern won 4-0 against Werder Bremen on Friday.

Kane reached 100 goals in all competitions for Bayern one game sooner than two of modern soccer’s most prolific scorers.

Cristiano Ronaldo needed 105 games to score 100 for Real Madrid in 2011 and Erling Haaland’s 100th for Manchester City last year also came in his 105th game.

After Jonathan Tah’s backheel gave Bayern the lead, Kane scored his first of the night from the penalty spot in the 45th minute after being fouled by Marco Friedl and his second off a pass from Luis Díaz in the 65th for a 3-0 lead. Kane was smiling broadly as he celebrated the landmark goal.

Even by Kane’s standards, it’s been a prolific start to the new season. Including Friday’s goals, Kane has 15 in eight games so far in 2025-26 for Bayern, along with one goal for England against Serbia.

His hopes of a third hat trick of the season ended when he was substituted for Nicolas Jackson in the 78th. Konrad Laimer made it 4-0 in the 87th.

Bayern stretched its lead at the top of the Bundesliga with a fifth win in as many games as it prepares to visit Pafos of Cyprus in the Champions League on Tuesday.

Bayern played in a grey and green special edition shirt to commemorate Munich’s Oktoberfest but it prompted protests in the stadium. A large banner raised at one end of the arena called for Bayern to play in its traditional red and white instead.
