In his debut Bundesliga appearance for Bayern Munich, Harry Kane scored against Werder Bremen.
The England international scored his first goal for Bayern on his debut, making the score 2-0 after assisting the Bavarian giants’ opener.
Kane scored his first goal in German football following superb work from Alphonso Davies on the left flank, with the Canadian international feeding the centre-forward, who was unmarked in the box between the Bremen center-backs.
The England international let the ball pass over his body before unleashing a spectacular strike into the bottom left corner. The shot was notable for taking a tiny deflection off defender Amos Pieper, which aided the Three Lions captain.
Kane’s goal was his final contribution to the game, as the 30-year-old was replaced minutes later after suffering cramps.
Kane made his first contribution to his new team just four minutes into the game. The former Tottenham Hotspur midfielder’s clever flick sent Leroy Sane sprinting through on goal, and the German rolled his shot past the keeper and into the bottom left corner.
Bayern eventually won the game 4-0.
Kane abruptly departed Tottenham this week in a move worth up to £100 million, bringing an end to a 19-year history with the north London club.
As a result, he became the first current England captain to quit the Premier League since David Beckham left Manchester United for Real Madrid in 2003.
Explaining his decision to join Bayern, Kane told ESPN: “People talk a lot about trophies and there’s a lot about on social media and about trophy trophies but for me it’s to always improve.
“Of course I want to win. I want to win every year. When I was at Tottenham, I’ve never gone into a season not trying to win the trophies. So of course we know it hasn’t quite happened for me yet, but I’ve got plenty of years to try and achieve that.
“It’s not just the trophies, it’s to push myself to be at a club like Munich, the pressure is a lot higher and you have to make sure you are winning titles. You have to make sure you are getting far in the Champions League, otherwise you’ve failed. And that’s an experience I want it to feel. That’s a pressure I want it to feel and that’s ultimately why I’ve come.”
