FC Bayern Munich strengthened their Bundesliga title charge with a narrow 3-2 victory. They defeated Eintracht Frankfurt in an intense encounter.
Harry Kane delivered another standout performance for the champions. He scored twice to secure all three points. Consequently, Bayern moved nine points clear at the summit.
Midfielder Aleksandar Pavlovic opened the scoring early. He capitalised on a defensive lapse with a low strike. Shortly after, Kane doubled the advantage with a close-range header.
The England captain struck again after the break. He placed a precise effort inside the post. However, momentum shifted late in the second half. Kane conceded a penalty, which Jonathan Burkardt converted confidently.
Defensive errors further unsettled the hosts. Captain Joshua Kimmich misplaced a pass under pressure. Arnaud Kalimuendo punished the mistake with a clinical finish.
Despite late pressure, Bayern maintained composure. They controlled possession and slowed the tempo. Therefore, Frankfurt failed to find an equaliser.
Kane now boasts 28 league goals this season. He has scored 43 times across all competitions. Meanwhile, Bayern face injury concerns after Alphonso Davies limped off.
Elsewhere, rivals continue chasing points. However, Bayern remain firmly in control. Their consistency keeps them strong favourites for the Bundesliga crown.
