Osnabrück, September 3 — A brace from Harry Kane helped Bayern Munich come from behind to secure a 4-1 victory in their German Cup opener against second division side Osnabrück. Tom Bischof and Michael Olise also found the back of the net for the home team. Bayern trailed early on when Robin Meissner scored a superb goal from outside the box after just five minutes.
Kane, speaking after the match, said, "It's never easy at an away ground with a very good atmosphere. They started the game with an amazing goal, and we had to stay calm." The England captain now boasts 148 goals in 150 appearances for Bayern in all competitions, having joined the club from Tottenham in 2023. Meissner had the hosts believing a shock upset was possible before Kane equalized with a rebound in the same match.
Bischof added another goal shortly after, putting Bayern in the driver's seat. Olise scored on 73 minutes, and Kane converted a penalty with four minutes left to seal the win for the holders. On Tuesday, Borussia Dortmund defeated fifth-division amateur side HEBC 5-0 in Hamburg.
