"Kane took his tally to 24 goals in 21 league appearances in 2025-26 with his first-half brace from the penalty spot, but it was Luis Diaz who stole the show on Sunday. The former Liverpool winger netted a hat-trick, with his first goal in the 47th minute teed up by Kane, before he added two more in a scintillating attacking display from Bayern."
"Bayern were worthy of their triumph, registering an expected goals (xG) total of 5.64 from their 27 shots compared to Hoffenheim's 2.04 from their nine attempts. The Bundesliga giants are also in the quarter-finals of the DFB-Pokal, where they face RB Leipzig on Wednesday, as well as the last 16 of the Champions League, and Kane is relishing the challenge of the upcoming schedule."
Bayern Munich defeated 10-man Hoffenheim 5-1 to move six points clear at the top of the Bundesliga. Harry Kane scored two first-half penalties, taking his league tally to 24 goals in 21 appearances. Luis Diaz produced a hat-trick after a 47th-minute opener set up by Kane, and Michael Olise recorded another assist, marking six consecutive Bundesliga matches with at least one. Bayern registered an xG of 5.64 from 27 shots versus Hoffenheim's 2.04 from nine attempts. Bayern remain active in the DFB-Pokal quarter-finals and the Champions League last 16 with a congested schedule ahead.
