Harry Kane Reaches 61 Goals After Winning the Pokal With Bayern Munich
Bayern Munich Completes Domestic Double
A magical night for Harry Kane in Berlin. The English striker delivered a spectacular hat trick in Bayern Munich’s 3-0 victory over Stuttgart in the DFB-Pokal final, securing another cup title for the Bavarian giants and completing the domestic double after also winning the Bundesliga.
With the triumph, Bayern Munich claimed its 21st German Cup title, further cementing its historic dominance in the competition. Beyond the team achievement, however, the spotlight once again belonged to Kane, who capped off another unforgettable performance in what has been a sensational season.
The English forward finished as the top scorer of the Pokal with 10 goals, far ahead of his closest challenger, Christoph Baumgartner, who ended the tournament with just four. Every time Bayern needed an attacking leader, Kane delivered.
A Historic Season for Kane
His numbers this season look straight out of a video game. Harry Kane has scored 61 goals across all competitions (51 matches): 36 in the Bundesliga, where he finished as the league’s top scorer; 14 in the UEFA Champions League; 10 in the Pokal; and one more in the German Super Cup. It is a staggering tally that establishes him as the most dominant striker in world football today.
Since arriving in Germany, the Englishman’s impact has been immediate. He has now scored 146 goals in 147 appearances for Bayern Munich, an astonishing figure for a player who arrived under pressure to continue the club’s legendary tradition of elite goal scorers.
In addition, Kane has virtually secured the European Golden Boot. His 72 points place him well ahead of Erling Haaland, who sits second in the race for the award. It would mark the second time the English striker wins the honor — after also claiming it in the 2023-24 season with Bayern Munich — crowning what has been the best individual campaign of his career.
Ballon d’Or and World Cup Become Next Targets
The conversation surrounding the Ballon d’Or is also beginning to revolve around his name. After winning the domestic double and delivering a historic campaign, Harry Kane has emerged as one of the leading favorites for football’s most prestigious individual award.
Now, the next challenge will be even bigger: the 2026 FIFA World Cup. England arrives with one of the most talented generations in recent memory, and Kane heads into the tournament as captain, top scorer, and unquestioned leader. If he can carry this form into the World Cup and guide the Three Lions into title contention, he could end up authoring one of the greatest seasons modern football has ever seen.
