Harry Kane scored one of the best goals in his career during Bayern Munich’s 8-0 destruction of Darmstadt on Saturday. The English striker netted a hat trick but will remember his second goal the most as it came from inside his own half.
With Bayern leading 4-0, Kane spotted the Darmstadt goalkeeper off his line. Despite being over 60 yards out from goal, Kane pulled the trigger.

What an iconic goal from Kane. It’s reminiscent of the time that David Beckham scored a similar goal for Manchester United back in 1996.
Saturday’s goal from Kane is yet another example of him loving life in Germany. Through his first 13 appearances he’s sored 14 goals and added seven assists. A goal machine.
The game against Darmstadt was a wild one as Bayern midfielder Joshua Kimmich was sent off just four minutes into the game. Rather than Darmstadt taking advantage, they would have two players sent off in the first half as well.
That meant that the entire second half was a 10 vs. 9 in Bayern’s favor.
Bayern also welcomed back Manuel Neuer who hadn’t played a game for the club since Nov. 12, 2022. The 37-year-old goalkeeper fractured his leg in a skiing accident.
