Bayern Munich star Harry Kane ended his three-match goalless streak by scoring a brilliant hat-trick against Stuttgart. The 31-year-old veteran forward completed a 23-minute hat-trick, helping the Bavarian giants claim a massive 4-0 win.
The visitors held Bayern Munich to a 0-0 draw until the 57th minute of the match, before Harry Kane broke the deadlock. He had previously missed a golden opportunity in front of the goal in the 51st minute, later scoring a goal from outside the penalty box.
The English skipper then helped double the lead through a 61st minute goal, before securing his hat-trick in the 80th minute. Kane scored his third goal from a rebound shot that was initially struck by midfielder Joao Palhinha.
The three goals helped the former Tottenham forward make it to the second position on the Bundesliga goal-scoring charts with eight goals, one behind Frankfurt’s Omar Marmoush. Meanwhile, it marked his third hat-trick of the season.

The Englishman also ended his three-match goal-scoring drought, having not scored in the team’s last two Bundesliga games as well as during their historic 1-0 UCL defeat to Aston Villa. With his three goals, Kane took his Bayern Munich goal tally to 57 goals in 55 appearances.
The win also helped Vincent Kompany’s side remain on top of the German league table, with 17 points from seven matches. Bayern are currently leveled on points with rivals RB Leipzig, ahead of their much-awaited visit to Camp Nou this week where they face FC Barcelona.
Bayern Munich youngster ruled out of Barcelona clash after injury against Stuttgart
Aleksandar Pavlovic has been ruled out for the club’s crucial UCL league stage encounter against long-time rivals FC Barcelona. The 20-year-old midfielder misses out due to a freaking collarbone injury that he sustained against Stuttgart.
Pavlovic has been ruled out for a much longer spell, after he fell on his shoulders during a scuffle for an aerial ball with Suttgart’s Fabian Reider. The young German midfielder was stretchered off the pitch in just the eighth minute of the match with a broken collarbone. The midfielder later underwent surgery for his broken bone, following a few crucial tests by doctors.
Meanwhile, the Bavarian giants will be looking to continue their impressive winning streak over Barcelona, when they visit Camp Nou this week. It will also mark a reunion of current Barca manager Hansi Flick and forward Robert Lewandowski, with their former side.
