Bayern danced with Harry Kane against Dinamo Zagreb
Kane managed to score 4 goals against Dynamo, becoming the first footballer in the history of the Champions League to score in the same game three times with a penalty kick.
Tuesday, September 17 will be etched in the memory of Bayern Munich fans for many years... The Belgian team, Vincent Kompany (he took over the helm in the summer and even while it was their last resort) stole the show in the 1st matchday of the new expanded and reformed Champions League. The football players of the Bavarian team were literally on fire. They thus crushed Dinamo Zagreb with an amazing 9-2, achieving the biggest score that has been scored by paying the top football competition in Europe.
The stars of Bayern with the new additions he made in the summer did not leave the Croatian team in the dark in the packed "Allianz Arena" of 75,000 fans.
The night in Munich was historic in many ways. On the one hand, Bayern's 9 goals, on the other
Harry Kane, who does not stop spreading terror to the opposing goalkeepers. In the middle of it all, Thomas Muller also managed to quietly write his own golden personal page.
This score is of course historic as no other team in the past has managed to score nine goals in a Champions League level match. Bayern became the first team to reach this incredible number of goals in one game, with the Croatians paying the... price.
At the same time, Vincent Kompany also achieved his own record, becoming the coach with the longest victory in his debut in the "stars".
Kane, the strongest English heavy "artillery" of the Champions League
The night in question also belongs to Harry Kane. The captain of the England national team managed to score 4 goals against Dynamo, becoming the first footballer in the history of the Champions League to score in the same game three times with a penalty kick. Furthermore, the forward of the Bavarians became the first English scorer in the history of the Champions League who reached 33 goals, leaving Wayne Rooney in second place.
Harry Kane is also the first footballer to score a hat-trick of penalties in a European Cup/Champions League match, equaling the record of 4 goals in one game as an Englishman, which was achieved in 1991 by Alan Smith of Arsenal in 6-1 on Austria Vienna
The success of Thomas Muller
Thomas Muller also managed to set his own special record. The German may now spend most of his time as a substitute, but his experience is enough to offer Bayern a... quality 25 minutes. Kompany put him on in the 68th minute of the match and somewhere in there Muller became the player with the most appearances in the history of the Champions League with just one team. The German ace reached 152 matches in the "stars" with the shirt of Bayern and left behind Xavi who had stopped in 151 games with Barcelona.
