Champions League: Kane Double Powers Bayern Past Chelsea; PSG Cruise In Opener
At the Allianz Arena, Bayern struck first in the 20th minute when Trevoh Chalobah, under pressure from Dayot Upamecano, turned the ball into his own net. Seven minutes later, Kane doubled the lead from the penalty spot after being brought down in the box. But Chelsea, unbeaten in the Premier League until now, struck back almost immediately. Cole Palmer, making his first start after returning from a groin injury, initiated and finished a slick move to make it 2-1.
The hosts grew stronger after the interval, with goalkeeper Robert Sanchez twice denying them — first stopping a Kane shot in the 57th minute and then brilliantly pushing away Michael Olise’s effort. Kane eventually broke through again, coolly finishing low in the 63rd to seal the result and bring his Champions League tally to 21 goals. The England captain is now one of only three players — alongside Cristiano Ronaldo and Neymar — to have scored 20+ goals for two different clubs in the competition.
