Harry Kane doubled Bayern Munich’s advantage just minutes after Erick Pulgar’s own goal as the German champions raced into an early lead in their Club World Cup Round of 16 clash against Flamengo.
The England captain found the net at the Hard Rock Stadium with a low left-footed strike four minutes after Pulgar had headed a Joshua Kimmich corner into his own net as Vincent Kompany’s men took a commanding step towards the last eight.
What a strike from @HKane 🔥

Flamengo, the current Brazilian top-flight leaders who beat Chelsea in the group stage, were left stunned in the Miami heat as Bayern, back to full strength after suffering defeat with a weakened side against Benfica in their last game, came flying out the traps.
With Bayern leading after just six minutes, Kane picked up the loose ball from Dayot Upamecano’s tackle before turning and rifling a driven shot that hit the inside of the post and nestled into the far side of the net.
A mouth-watering prospect awaits the winner of this match. The victor will meet European champions Paris Saint-Germain, who thrashed Inter Miami 4-0 earlier in the day, for a place in the semi-final of the competition.
