Harry Kane’s Dortmund Brace Takes Him to 30 League Goals, Puts Lewandowski’s Record Within Reach

The Bayern striker sits 11 goals off Robert Lewandowski’s 41 with roughly 10 Bundesliga matches remaining.

Overview

  • Harry Kane scored twice in Bayern Munich’s 3-2 win at Borussia Dortmund, with Joshua Kimmich netting a late winner to keep Bayern 11 points clear of BVB.
  • Kane’s Bundesliga tally stands at 30 in 24 matches, leaving him 11 shy of Lewandowski’s single-season record of 41 set in 2020–21.
  • Asked post-match if he is chasing the mark, Kane said he is "for sure" targeting it while stressing he must stay consistent and reassess in late April or early May.
  • Kane has 45 goals in all competitions in 37 games, surpassing his personal best and becoming the first Englishman to reach 45 in a season since Dixie Dean in 1931–32.
  • He has delivered four consecutive Bundesliga braces, a feat previously achieved only by Lothar Emmerich and Tomislav Marić, and his 10 league penalties this season equal Paul Breitner’s single-season record.
