Sometimes, all you need is a world-class center forward to win a football match – just ask Bayern Munich. The Bavarian behemoths currently sit three points behind UEFA Champions League leaders Arsenal, with one match remaining in the league phase, and they are guaranteed to finish no lower than fourth. Over in the Bundesliga, meanwhile, they sit 11 points clear of second-placed Borussia Dortmund following a sensational run of form that has seen them take 50 points from a potential 54. There have been quite a few different factors, from the emergence of new players like Lennart Karl and Tom Bischof, to Luis Díaz’s instant impact in attack, to Joshua Kimmich’s reliable displays in midfield. However, arguably the biggest impact has come from none other than Harry Kane. Over the course of his two decades at Tottenham Hotspur, Kane ascended from the academy to the biggest stage in world football and asserted himself as one of the best strikers in the world, racking up an astonishing 280 goals and 63 assists in 435 appearances and establishing himself as the all-time leading scorer for both England and Tottenham. However, there was one thing that was missing: trophies. Desperate to secure the first trophy of his career, Kane made the move to Bayern Munich in 2023, with the German giants paying a Bundesliga record €110 million. Kane proved to be money well spent, racking up an astonishing 44 goals and 12 assists in 45 matches and winning his maiden European Golden Shoe. Similarly to other center forwards like Keinan Davis, Kane combined stellar hold-up play with ice-cold finishing skills and immediately confirmed his status as the best player in Germany. But alas, there was still something missing: a trophy. After a humiliating 2023/24 season which saw them torn asunder by Bayer Leverkusen’s all-conquering machine, Bayern were able to reassert themselves as Germany’s top dogs under new manager Vincent Kompany and claim a record-extending 34th Bundesliga title, thanks in large part to Kane’s 41 goals and 14 assists in 51 matches. At nearly 32 years of age, Kane finally had a piece of silverware in his trophy cabinet, although his critics still argued that this was the equivalent of getting your first kiss from your grandma. In order to convince everyone, he was going to have to get the job done in one of the biggest competitions in the world. Somehow, someway, Kane has been able to become an even better player this season, racking up a barely believable 34 goals and 4 assists in 29 appearances. And after being kept under wraps in his previous three Champions League matches, Kane was able to return to the score sheet on Wednesday. Just when Belgian side Union Saint-Gilloise looked to be closing in on the opening goal, Kane broke the deadlock after halftime after timing his near-post run to perfection and heading home from a tight angle. He was back at it shortly after, receiving on the edge of defense, feigning to shoot, before tricking the goalkeeper into fouling him, and converting the resulting spotkick. While he was unable to complete his hat-trick after squandering a second penalty, he atoned for his miss after picking the ball up from a deep area and splitting the defense like a knife through butter and finding an unmarked Díaz. The Colombian squared it to Michael Olise, who, rather than tucking it in from close range, skyrocketed his shot over the bar. All things considered, it was yet another reminder why Kane deserves to be considered one of the very best players in world football alongside the likes of Kylian Mbappé, Lamine Yamal, Erling Haaland, Ousmane Dembélé and Lionel Messi. And it’s more evidence that, if England are to finally win their first trophy…
