HARRY Kane scored twice from the penalty spot as Bayern Munich beat Werder Bremen to go nine points clear in the Bundesliga.
The England captain now has 21 goals in the top flight this season – and 57 goals in 51 Bundesliga games since moving to Germany – while the double takes him to 28 in 28 games in all competitions this term.
The 31-year-old converted his first 11 minutes into the second half after his effort on goal hit the hand of defender Anthony Jung.
Leroy Sane tapped in to double the lead after neat work from Jamal Musiala and Konrad Laimer on Bayern’s right.
Kane capped a dominant victory with his second spot kick in the 97th minute after Jung conceded his second penalty of the night, this time fouling Musiala in the box.
Vincent Kompany’s side were in complete control throughout, enjoying 75% possession and restricting the visitors to just two shots and none on target.
Bayern now sit nine points above nearest challengers Bayer Leverkusen, albeit the defending champions have a game in hand at Wolfsburg on Saturday.
They face Celtic next in the Champions League play-off first leg on Wednesday.
