Harry Kane delivered a masterclass performance, netting a hat trick to guide Bayern Munich to a resounding 4-0 win over VfB Stuttgart, sending the Bavarians back to the top of the Bundesliga standings. After a frustrating first half and a recent three-game goalless streak, Kane’s brilliance broke the deadlock, sparking Bayern’s resurgence.
Stuttgart held their own in the first half, limiting Bayern’s chances. But in the 57th minute, Kane unleashed a 25-yard strike that gave Bayern the breakthrough. Just three minutes later, the English striker capitalized on a goalmouth scramble to score his second. He completed his hat trick in the 80th minute, bringing his Bundesliga season tally to eight goals. Kingsley Coman added a late fourth goal in the 89th minute, ensuring Bayern’s dominant victory.
Despite their early resilience, Stuttgart faded in the second half. Their best chance came in the 53rd minute when Josha Vagnoman missed a close-range effort. Bayern, despite losing midfielder Aleksandar Pavlovic early to injury, controlled the match with 65% possession and 19 total shots.
The win moves Bayern to 17 points, ahead of RB Leipzig on goal difference. Kane’s hat trick comes at a pivotal moment, with Bayern set to face Barcelona in a crucial UEFA Champions League tie next week.
Kane’s performance not only lifted his team back to winning ways but also signaled his return to top form as Bayern look to challenge for both domestic and European honors this season.
