Bayern Munich thrashes Leipzig 6-0 with Kane hat-trick in Bundesliga opener

Bayern Munich began their Bundesliga 2025-26 title defense with a commanding 6-0 victory over RB Leipzig, highlighted by a second-half hat-trick from England captain Harry Kane. Kane, who has now scored eight Bundesliga hat-tricks, was supported by Michael Olise, who netted two goals, and new signing Luis Díaz, who scored once and assisted twice on his league debut. Bayern dominated the match from the start, taking a 3-0 lead by halftime with goals from Olise and Díaz, and continued to pressure Leipzig throughout the game. Leipzig showed some improvement after halftime under new coach Ole Werner, but Bayern’s offense, especially Kane’s clinical finishing, proved unstoppable. Kane has been a prolific scorer for Bayern, amassing 89 goals in 98 appearances across all competitions and continuing his strong form into the new season. The victory sends a strong message as Bayern looks to retain their championship under coach Vincent Kompany.
