Harry Kane continues to rewrite the history books in the UEFA Champions League. The Bayern Munich striker found the net again as the German giants cruised to a commanding 5-0 victory over Bodø/Glimt, extending his remarkable scoring run in Europe’s elite competition.
After a goalless first half, Bayern finally broke the deadlock shortly after the restart when Jamal Musiala converted from close range. Kane then got himself on the scoresheet in the 61st minute, heading home from an Olise free-kick to double Bayern’s advantage. Alphonso Davies added a third before Michael Olise struck twice late on to complete a comfortable victory.
For Kane, however, the night was about much more than another Bayern victory. His goal continued one of the most extraordinary scoring streaks in Champions League history and placed him alongside some of the greatest goalscorers the competition has ever produced.
Harry Kane Joins Cristiano Ronaldo in Elite Champions League Record
Kane’s goal against Bodø/Glimt means he has now scored in eight consecutive Champions League appearances, putting him in an extremely exclusive group.
The England captain is now one of only four players to have scored in eight or more consecutive Champions League appearances, joining:
- Cristiano Ronaldo (twice)
- Robert Lewandowski (twice)
- Ruud van Nistelrooy
- Harry Kane
That puts Kane alongside three legendary Champions League forwards, underlining just how consistently devastating he has become on Europe's biggest stage.
And the numbers behind his current run make the achievement even more impressive.
Harry Kane's Last 8 Champions League Games
Kane has also been directly involved in goals throughout his extraordinary eight-game scoring streak:
- vs. Bodø/Glimt: Goal, assist
- vs. PSG: Goal
- vs. PSG: Goal, assist
- vs. Real Madrid: Goal, assist
- vs. Real Madrid: Goal
- vs. Atalanta: Two goals
- vs. PSV: Goal
- vs. Saint-Gilloise: Two goals
That is a remarkable return of 10 goals and three assists across his last eight Champions League appearances, demonstrating that Kane is not simply finding the net regularly but also contributing creatively.
His latest goal also arrived on a night when Bayern demonstrated their attacking strength. Despite struggling to break through during the opening 45 minutes, Vincent Kompany's side exploded after the interval and eventually secured their Champions League campaign-opening victory in emphatic fashion.
Kane's Champions League Legacy Continues
At 33, Kane shows no signs of slowing down in Europe's premier competition. His ability to combine elite finishing with playmaking has made him one of the most complete forwards of his generation.
Now, with his name alongside Ronaldo, Lewandowski and Van Nistelrooy, Kane has another piece of Champions League history to his name. If this scoring streak continues, the Bayern striker could climb even further up the competition's all-time record books.
