Harry Kane scored his 100th goal for Bayern Munich<\/a> on Friday night, reaching the landmark in just 104 matches to become the fastest player this century to reach 100 goals for a single club.<\/p>\n

The England captain was on target twice in a 4-0 home win against Werder Bremen<\/a>, taking him to three figures and extending Bayern\u2019s 100% record after five Bundesliga outings. In doing so Kane has nudged ahead of Erling Haaland and Cristiano Ronaldo, who took 105 matches to reach three figures for Manchester City and Real Madrid respectively. The pair had jointly shared the scoring record in Europe\u2019s top five leagues but Kane has now gone clear on his own.<\/p>\n

Kane, who ended his long association with Tottenham to join Bayern in 2023<\/a>, is now the 19th player to score 100 goals for the club.<\/p>\n

Bayern were already one ahead through Jonathan Tah when he slammed home a penalty on the stroke of half-time \u2013 his 18th successful spot-kick from as many attempts. Kane moved from 99 to 100 with a smart finish 20 minutes into the second half, stabbing home after being teed up by Luis D\u00edaz.<\/p>\n

Kane was substituted with 12 minutes to go, denying him the chance of a second straight hat-trick after putting three past Hoffenheim, but Konrad Laimer did pop up to make it four.<\/p>\n

In France, Strasbourg missed a chance to go clear at the top of Ligue 1. Liam Rosenior\u2019s side were leading Marseille at home until the 78th minute, Abdoul Ouattara with the goal, but ended up with a 2-1 defeat which puts Roberto De Zerbi\u2019s side top of the standings for the time being.<\/p>\n

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang grabbed the equaliser and Michael Amir Murillo completed the turnaround victory as the clock ticked into added time.<\/p>\n
