Harry Kane sets record as Bayern demolish Bochum 7-1

Bayern Munich forward Harry Kane scored his first Bundesliga hat-trick and delivered two assists in their 7-0 demolition of VfL Bochum on Saturday to take his tally to seven and set a club record for most goals by a player in his first five league matches.

Kane’s three goals put him above club great Gerd Mueller, Miroslav Klose and Mario Mandzukic who all scored five times in their first five Bundesliga games.

The win lifted Bayern to 13 points in top spot from five Bundesliga games. Bayer Leverkusen, on 10, could join them if they beat Heidenheim on Sunday.

“We played well today and had the right mentality,” Kane said. “We made it look easy and had so much speed with the ball.

“Everyone was in top form today, it felt very good. I’m getting to know the team better with every game and things are going very well for me and for the team.”
