Kane debuts with two goals as Bayern advance

Bayern München defended their DBF Pokal title with a comfortable win away to Osnabrück (1-4), though the tie got tense early. Just five minutes in, Robin Meissner stunned the visitors with a long-range strike that put the Germans on the back foot.

Kane drives the comeback

The reaction came quickly and was led by Harry Kane, who scored his first two goals of the season. The England forward started the turnaround in the 18th minute after Joshua Kimmich lifted a ball into the area; Robin Fabinski’s clearance didn’t come off cleanly and Kane finished from close range.

Before half an hour, Bayern made it 1-2 up in the 24th minute: Tom Bischof released Michael Olise, Olise threaded a pass into the box for Luis Díaz, and while Díaz couldn’t beat Jonas Krumrey in the one-on-one, the rebound fell to Bischof, who made it count.

Tie sealed late

The 1-2 held for a while despite Osnabrück doing a decent job defending. Bayern finally put the tie to bed 15 minutes from the end after Lennart Karl—recently on—set up Olise, who cushioned the ball past Krumrey.

Kane capped it in the 86th minute, converting a penalty won by a foul on Aleksandar Pavlovic. As Mundo Deportivo notes, this was Bayern’s third official match win of the season, following Supercopa success over Borussia Dortmund (1-2) and the 5-1 opening-day win against Stuttgart. Next up is Schalke away on Saturday for the Bundesliga round.
