Overview
- Bayern won 3-0 at Werder Bremen to reach 57 points and remain six clear of Borussia Dortmund after Dortmund’s victory on Friday.
- Kane scored a first-half brace, converting a VAR-awarded penalty after Lennart Karl was fouled before adding a low strike from the edge of the box minutes later.
- The double brought Kane to 500 senior goals for club and country, including 100 from penalties, and to 26 league goals this season.
- Leon Goretzka made it 3-0 in the 70th minute, while Manuel Neuer was substituted at halftime as a precaution for a minor calf issue, with Jonas Urbig coming on.
- Reports note Kane’s perfect Bundesliga record from the spot (23 of 23) as Bremen’s lengthy winless run keeps them entrenched in a relegation fight.
