Harry Kane broke three records inside the game on a remarkable night for Bayern

Harry Kane broke three Champions League records on Tuesday night as Bayern Munich beat Dinamo Zagreb 9-2.

The striker took his tally to 33 goals in the competition and snatched another record from Wayne Rooney.

Kane became the English player with the most goals in the history of the Champions League after his four goals at the Allianz Arena.


The England captain has surpassed Rooney's tally of 30 goals in 85 games in this competition, all scored for Manchester United.

And Kane did it in 40 fewer games. It was Rooney's goalscoring record that Kane surpassed for the Three Lions in March 2023 – he now has 68 national team goals to Rooney's 53.

And the record breaking didn't stop there on Tuesday night. The former Spurs striker also became the first Englishman to score four goals in a single Champions League game.

And the first player of any nationality to score three goals from the penalty spot in the same match.

Kane's latest goals take him joint 25th with Fernando Morientes – taking Rooney, Kaka, Samuel Eto'o, Franciso Gento and Bayern great Arjen Robben all in one night. /Telegraph/
