Harry Kane equals Frank Lampard Champions League record as he shines for Bayern Munich again
Harry Kane has gone level with Frank Lampard for Champions League goals as he found the target once again for Bayern Munich.
The England captain scored 21 goals in 32 appearances in the competition at Tottenham before his summer move to Germany.
Kane added to his tally on his Champions League return when he netted in Bayern's 4-3 win against Manchester United.
They travelled to Galatasaray on Tuesday night for matchday three of the group stages and displayed his class in front of goal once again.
At 1-1 with less than 20 minutes remaining, Kane scored from close range after his initial back-heel shot from Jamal Musiala's pass was blocked.
Such a goal takes his overall tally to 23 in the competition, therefore equalling the number scored by Chelsea legend Lampard.
Kane looks set to overtake him in the coming weeks as Bayern eye qualification for the knockout stage.
One more goal would see him equal Gonzalo Higuain and Luis Figo and see him sit just six shy of Wayne Rooney.
The 30-year-old now has 11 goals to his name in 12 appearances for Bayern as he continues to settle in in Germany.
He also turned provider on the night as he assisted Musiala for their third and final goal en route to victory.
Kingsley Coman's low finish opened the scoring for Bayern before a delicious Panenka penalty from Mauro Icardi levelled the tie.
Kane then struck in the 73rd and Musiala sealed the deal moments later as Thomas Tuchel's side continue their 100 per cent record in the group.
