Harry Kane sets record as Bundesliga's all-time top-scoring Englishman

Kane struck Bayern's third goal from the edge of the area - his 41st in 36 league appearances for the club - after Michael Olise and Jamal Musiala had given them a two-goal half-time lead.

Former Crystal Palace forward Olise notched his second before Serge Gnabry completed the rout, while Kane's effort lifted him above Jadon Sancho, who scored 40 league goals for Borussia Dortmund.

Bayern have now won their first four league games under boss Vincent Kompany.

Meanwhile in other Bundesliga action, Freiburg made it three wins out of four to climb into the top three after Vincenzo Grifo's double helped them to a 3-0 win at Heidenheim.

Eintracht Frankfurt made it three straight wins as they defeated Borussia Monchengladbach 2-0 at home and Union Berlin moved up to fourth after a 2-1 home win against Hoffenheim.

Holstein Kiel registered their first Bundesliga point after Japan striker Shuto Machino's late equaliser secured a 2-2 draw at Bochum.
