Harry Kane hits 500 career goals as Bayern maintains 6-point Bundesliga lead

England star Harry Kane scored twice for Bayern Munich on Saturday – including his 100th successful penalty – to take his career tally to 500 for club and country, according to stats provider Opta, Associated Press reported. 

Kane’s brace helped Bayern maintain its six-point Bundesliga lead with a 3-0 win at relegation-threatened Werder Bremen.

Kane said he was only told of his achievement after the match.

“It was nice. Obviously a proud achievement to reach 500 goals. It’s a lot of hard work, a lot sacrifice, so nice to reach it. But as always, it’s about the next one,” Kane told broadcaster Dazn. “So the most important thing today is the win, the clean sheet.”
