"Harry Kane ended his three-game drought in the tournament by scoring a brace for 10-man Bayern Munich against Union Saint-Gilloise in a 2-0 win meaning that unless anything farcical happens in the final matchday, the Bavarians should seal the second place in the table. Kane, who also missed a penalty, now has 34 goals in all competitions this season. The fact that we're still in January means that he will surely break his own record of 44 goals in a single campaign."
"Meanwhile, Barcelona's 3-2 victory over Slavia Prague meant that Hansi Flick's team now has an opportunity to enter next week with a chance to finish inside the desired top eight, but Newcastle United will have something to say about that as the Magpies delivered a strong 3-0 victory against PSV Eindhoven at St. James's Park. The win placed them eighth, and now they have a great chance to earn a direct berth in the Round of 16."
