After his next goal show, FC Bayern’s top striker Harry Kane is heading more than ever towards Robert Lewandowski’s Bundesliga record. “I trust Harry with everything. He does what he always does throughout his career. He scores, he is a role model, he is a great personality,” said coach Thomas Tuchel when he was asked about Kane’s hat-trick and Lewandowski’s record after Saturday’s 8-1 win against FSV Mainz 05.

Lewandowski broke Gerd Müller’s legendary mark in the 2020/21 season and scored 41 goals. Nine games before the end of the season, Kane has 30 goals. The English international became the first player in Bundesliga history to score eight multiple packs in his first season.

“I am in a good position and feel good. 30 goals is a nice milestone at this point in the season,” said Kane. There are still a few games left and hopefully there will be a few more goals. Kane demonstrated his versatility in the massive win against Mainz. He hit with his right, his left and his head. “It’s a gift to be able to train him,” emphasized Tuchel about the 95 million euro purchase from the summer, making him the most expensive signing in the history of the Bundesliga.

Leon Goretzka’s brace and Serge Gnabry’s remarkable goal in his Bundesliga comeback were almost lost in the shadow of Kane’s goal show. “Harry is a phenomenon with his goal rate. “But it’s also unbelievable how he works for the team,” emphasized sports director Christoph Freund. The preparatory work before Jamal Musiala’s goal was also outstanding. He doesn’t want to single out anyone, but of course Kane is a very important factor, says Freund.

Like coach Tuchel, captain Manuel Neuer did not want to create a ranking with Kane. When asked whether Kane would reach Lewandowski’s mark, the Bayern keeper said: “I’m keeping my fingers crossed.”
