Berlin, Feb 8 (NationPress) Harry Kane's second-half brace propelled Bayern Munich to a commanding 3-0 victory over Werder Bremen in the Bundesliga.

“We must sustain this momentum. We had several opportunities to increase our tally. With crucial matches ahead, staying focused is essential,” remarked Kane.
Bayern now sits nine points ahead of second-placed Bayer Leverkusen, while Werder Bremen holds the eighth position.
