"FC Bayern beat Werder Bremen 3-0 in the Bundesliga on Saturday. Harry Kane handed Bayern the lead from the penalty spot after 20 minutes and soon made it two to equal Robert Lewandowski's Bundesliga record of 26 goals after 22 matches. Leon Goretzka rounded off the final scoreline midway through the second half. Munich started with Manuel Neuer in goal and Josip Stanišić, Minjae Kim, Jonathan Tah and Konrad Laimer in defence."
"Bremen made a bold start and Romano Schmid fired wide before Cameron Puertas' cross only just evaded Felix Agu, but Bayern soon asserted their dominance. Kane saw a shot deflected wide before Senne Lynen upended Karl in the box, with Kane dispatching the ensuing penalty. The champions struck again immediately after when Goretzka intercepted the ball and Kane's curler from distance found the net via the inside of the post. Díaz saw an effort saved and keeper Mio Backhaus beat Kane to the ball. Agu fired just wide as Bayern were two up at half-time."
"The pendulum swung the other way for a spell after the restart, with Marco Grüll hitting the post. Backhaus denied Díaz and Gnabry before Urbig proved equal to Schmid's shot. Munich put the game to bed when Musiala sidestepped a number of opponents and Davies squared for Goretzka to smash home. Bischof put a free-kick into the wall, with Urbig denying Grüll at the other end. Musiala drew a fine save from Backhaus as Bayern sealed three more deserved points."
Bayern Munich secured a 3-0 victory over Werder Bremen with Harry Kane scoring twice and Leon Goretzka adding a late third. Kane converted a penalty after 20 minutes and curled a second goal to match Robert Lewandowski's 26-goal Bundesliga tally after 22 matches. Munich's starting XI featured Manuel Neuer, Josip Stanišić, Minjae Kim, Jonathan Tah and Konrad Laimer in defence, with Joshua Kimmich and Goretzka in midfield. Jonas Urbig replaced Neuer at half-time, and Alphonso Davies, Jamal Musiala, Tom Bischof and Nicolas Jackson entered in the second half. The win lifts Bayern to 57 points from 22 matches, six clear of Borussia Dortmund.
