They often play man-to-man; they really put you under pressure, but we were able to cope with it, and I think we looked like the stronger team in the final half-hour and punished them. The boys did a great job in the first 60 minutes, so we subs could exploit the space. And, of course, it's nice for me personally to score a few goals."
"Konrad Laimer opened the scoring in the 11th minute, but Bayern struggled to extend their dominance in the first half as Nikolas Nartey saw a goal ruled out for offside following a VAR review. Kompany opted for a host of changes on the hour mark, including bringing on Kane, who went on to score a stellar hat-trick in the final 30 minutes."
Konrad Laimer opened the scoring in the 11th minute, but Bayern failed to extend their dominance before halftime as Nikolas Nartey had a goal ruled out for offside after a VAR review. Vincent Kompany introduced several substitutes around the hour mark, including Harry Kane, whose introduction sparked a decisive second-half performance. Kane doubled the lead in the 66th minute, Josip Stanisic struck from range in the 78th, and Kane added two late goals to complete a hat-trick. Kane's Bundesliga tally rose to 17 and his calendar-year total reached 58, while Bayern's lead at the top widened to eight points.
