Kane shines again as Bayern cruise past Pafos in Champions League
PAPHOS, Cyprus: Harry Kane continued his rich goalscoring form with a brace and Nicolas Jackson scored his first Bayern Munich goal in a 5-1 win at Pafos in the Champions League on Tuesday. The result made it two wins from two in the league phase for Bayern following their 3-1 win at home to Premier League side Chelsea on matchday one, in which Kane netted twice. “We struggled away from home in the league phase last season,” Kane told German TV, calling the match “a good away win.” “I’m going into games with confidence, knowing I’ll get my chances. Scored a couple more goals today, I’m happy with that,” he added. Having set the record for the fastest man to 100 goals in a top-five league on Friday, doing so from 104 games, Kane was quick to get on the scoresheet, sliding the ball in with 14 minutes played. Raphael Guerreiro got in on the action six minutes later, before Jackson added a third for the visitors on the 31st-minute mark. The goal was Jackson’s first since joining on a season-long loan from Chelsea in the summer. Not known for his dribbling, Kane took the ball past the Pafos defense down the left flank and hammered in with 34 minutes played.
