**Munich, Germany** – Harry Kane etched his name into Bundesliga history on Tuesday, scoring a hat-trick in Bayern Munich’s 3-0 victory over Augsburg to become the fastest player ever to reach 50 Bundesliga goals. The England captain achieved the feat in just 43 appearances, surpassing Erling Haaland’s previous record of 50 games.

Kane’s three goals, including two penalties and a stunning late finish, capped off a dominant performance at the Allianz Arena. His achievement also shattered Bayern Munich’s internal record, beating Robert Lewandowski’s previous mark of 64 games. Legendary Bayern players like Gerd Müller (83 games), Roy Makaay (67 games), and Mario Gomez (71 games) also took longer to reach the milestone.

This season alone, Kane has already scored 20 goals across all competitions for Bayern, making him the first player across Europe’s top five leagues to reach that mark in 2024-25. This hat-trick is his fourth of the season, following previous trebles against Holstein Kiel, VfB Stuttgart, and Dinamo Zagreb. His career total now stands at 21 hat-tricks, with eight scored for Bayern and 13 for Tottenham Hotspur.

Kane’s prolific scoring continues a remarkable run since joining Bayern. He broke the Bundesliga record for most goals in a debut season last year with 36 goals. He’s currently on 14 goals in 11 league games this season, aiming to challenge Robert Lewandowski’s single-season record of 41 goals.
