Harry Kane scored twice and set up another as Bayern Munich secured a comfortable Bundesliga victory over Union Berlin.

Kane, 31, calmly slotted into the bottom corner from the penalty spot on 15 minutes after Michael Olise was fouled in the area.

The England captain threaded through for Kinglsey Coman to double the hosts’ lead just before half time before cleverly tapping home in the 51st minute to wrap up three points at Allianz Arena.

Kane is the top scorer in the German top flight with 11 goals and has 60 goal involvements in 41 Bundesliga appearances with 47 goals and 13 assists.

The result ends Union Berlin’s three-match unbeaten run, leaving them sixth in the league while Bayern have won their last three league games.

Vincent Kompany’s side will hope to take their league form into Europe this week when they face Benfica having won one and lost two matches so far in the Champions League.
