🔥 Kane the King! Bayern Star Nets 400th Career Goal as Kompany Hails ‘Outstanding’ Striker in Klassiker Triumph

Vincent Kompany was left in awe of Harry Kane after the Bayern Munich forward reached a remarkable milestone — scoring his 400th career goal — to secure a thrilling 2-1 victory over Borussia Dortmund in the Bundesliga Klassiker. The England captain’s superb header not only sealed three vital points for Bayern but also underlined his status as one of football’s most consistent goal scorers.

Kane opened the scoring in the 22nd minute with a trademark header, his 12th Bundesliga goal of the season. The England captain’s strike set the tone for another impressive Bayern display. Michael Olise later doubled the lead, and though Julian Brandt pulled one back for Dortmund, Kompany’s men held firm to maintain their perfect start and move five points clear at the top of the table.

The win marked Bayern’s 11th consecutive victory in all competitions, equalling a German football record previously set by Dortmund under Thomas Tuchel in the 2015/16 season. For Kane, it was another chapter in a glittering career that already includes the Premier League Golden Boot, the World Cup Golden Boot, and England’s all-time scoring record.

After the match, Kompany couldn’t hide his admiration. “Harry Kane can still improve, even though he’s been more than brilliant for us,” the Belgian boss said. “Messi and Ronaldo set the bar so high that people forget how special Kane’s numbers are. What he’s doing is truly outstanding. You can’t teach his sense for space or his instinct inside the box — that’s pure talent.”

The Bayern coach also praised his team’s fluid attacking play and mental toughness. “We lost our rhythm at times, but we stayed united and dangerous,” Kompany added. “Dortmund deserve credit for their fight, but we showed character and control when it mattered most.”

Kane’s arrival has revolutionized Bayern’s attack, making them more unpredictable and cohesive. His link-up play has unlocked the potential of teammates like Olise and Jamal Musiala, while his leadership brings calm and confidence on and off the pitch.

As Bayern now turn their focus to the Champions League clash against Club Brugge, Kompany will once again rely on his talismanic striker. With 400 goals behind him and his form showing no signs of slowing, Harry Kane is proving to be not just Bayern’s spearhead — but their inspiration.
