Before Kane scored the goal, Serge Gnabry had found the back of the net. However, after a VAR check, the German's goal was overturned but Bayern earned the penalty as the referee detected that Aleksandar Pavlovic was fouled inside the box. Soon after the Englishman netted the opener, Raphael Guerreiro doubled their lead before Michael Olise added to the team's tally a few minutes before half-time. Olise scored again in the second half to also make it a Champions League debut to remember for the Frenchman.
