Kane scores hat trick and Bayern extends Bundesliga lead to 11 points
BERLIN (AP) --- Harry Kane was substituted in at the hour mark and still had
enough time to score a hat trick on Saturday.
The England captain took his goal tally for Bayern Munich this season to 28 and
the defending champions extended their lead to 11 points after thrashing
Stuttgart 5-0 on the road.
Second-placed Leipzig later hosted Eintracht Frankfurt.
With Kane on the bench, Konrad Laimer took on the scoring duties and produced a
superb finish. The Austria midfielder collected a long ball and combined with
Michael Olise before slotting home from close range with a subtle backheel past
goalkeeper Alexander Nbel in the 11th minute.
Kane made it 2-0 with a low shot into the bottom corner and Josip Stanisic
added his name to the scoresheet. Kane added further luster to the win from the
penalty spot after Stuttgart was reduced to 10 men for Lorenz Assignon using
his arm to clear a ball in the 81st.
Kane completed the rout with a flick from an Olise cross with two minutes left.
He has found the net five more times with England this season, taking his total
to 33 goals for club and country.
Stuttgart had chances before halftime but lacked a cutting edge. Midfielder
Nikolas Nartey thought he equalized only for his goal to be ruled out for
offside after a VAR check.
Bayern Munich is unbeaten in 16 league and cup games against German opposition
this season.
