English forward Harry Kane delivered an outstanding performance, scoring twice to help Bayern Munich secure a 4–2 victory over Brazilian club Flamengo in the FIFA Club World Cup round of 16.
The match at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami began with intensity. Bayern opened the scoring in the 6th minute, thanks to an own goal from Flamengo’s Erick Pulgar. Just three minutes later, Kane found the net, doubling the lead for the German champions.
Flamengo responded in the 33rd minute when Gerson scored to make it 2-1. However, Bayern quickly restored their two-goal cushion as Leon Goretzka netted in the 41st minute, giving Bayern a strong 3–1 lead by halftime.
The second half saw Flamengo narrow the gap in the 54th minute through a penalty goal from Jorginho, making it 3-2. But any hopes of a comeback were dashed in the 73rd minute when Kane struck again, securing a 4–2 win for Bayern.
With this win, Bayern Munich moves into the quarterfinals, where they will face Paris Saint-Germain (PSG), who defeated Inter Miami in their previous match.
