Kane extends Champions League scoring streak as Bayern crush Bodø/Glimt 5-0
Bayern Munich produced one of the standout results of the opening Champions League matchday, beating Bodø/Glimt 5-0 in Munich. Harry Kane scored to extend his run to eight consecutive Champions League games with a goal, while Jamal Musiala, Alphonso Davies and Michael Olise also found the net in a dominant performance.
Bayern blitz Bodø/Glimt as Kane extends remarkable Champions League streak
Bayern Munich delivered one of the most emphatic statements of the opening Champions League matchday, routing Bodø/Glimt 5-0 in Munich and underlining their status as early contenders in the new league phase.
According to a detailed results roundup from Ahram Online, Bayern ran out 5-0 winners at home, with Jamal Musiala, Harry Kane, Alphonso Davies and Michael Olise all on the scoresheet. Musiala opened the scoring in the second half, before Kane struck to continue his prolific run in the competition. Davies added a third, and Olise struck twice late on to complete the five-goal margin.
A broader Champions League wrap from the Washington Post notes that Bayern’s victory over Bodø/Glimt came as part of a busy night in Europe’s top club competition, highlighting that Manchester United returned to winning ways, Como impressed on debut and Kane “can’t stop scoring.” Those reports frame Bayern’s performance as one of the standout results of the round, both for the scoreline and for the manner of their dominance.
Kane’s scoring run drives Bayern’s early European campaign
The Guardian’s live European football blog reports that Harry Kane has now scored in eight consecutive Champions League games, underscoring his status as one of the most decisive forwards in the tournament. That streak continued against Bodø/Glimt, where he again found the net in Bayern’s 5-0 win.
Taken together, the live blog and the results roundups show a clear pattern: Bayern are building their early Champions League campaign around Kane’s consistency and a multi-pronged attacking threat that also features Musiala, Davies and Olise. Each of the four scorers against Bodø/Glimt is explicitly listed in the Ahram Online results piece, confirming the spread of goals across Bayern’s front line and midfield.
Bayern’s win stands out in a crowded Champions League opening week
The same Ahram Online results page places Bayern’s 5-0 victory alongside other notable opening-phase scores, including big wins for Barcelona and PSG and narrow victories for Arsenal and Liverpool. But Bayern’s combination of a clean sheet and a five-goal margin, anchored by Kane’s ongoing scoring run, marks this match as one of the most eye-catching results of the first week.
The Washington Post’s Champions League roundup reinforces that view by highlighting Bayern’s win in the context of other storylines from the night, framing it as part of an early reset after domestic and European campaigns kicked into gear. With Kane’s eight-game scoring streak documented by the Guardian and the precise 5-0 score and scorers detailed by Ahram Online, Bayern’s dismantling of Bodø/Glimt emerges as arguably the most newsworthy major-club development of the last 48 hours in Europe’s top competitions.
