Harry Kane has made more football history, this time in the Bundesliga, after scoring a hat-trick for Bayern Munich against Augsburg on Friday night.
Those three goals took him to 23 for the current season in 22 games for club and country, not to mention the nine assists he has also made.
Harry Kane sets a new all-time Bundesliga record
He doesn’t just want his goals inspire the next generation neither of players.
However, his hat-trick – scored in the 63rd, 93rd and 95th minutes and including two penalties – meant he set a new Bundesliga record.
A feat that not even top-flight German superstars Gerd Muller, Robert Lewandowski and Erling Haaland can match.

A wonderful boy from Tottenham recently emulated Kane but they should go some way to matching his new record, as he is now the fastest to reach 50 goals in the Bundesliga, having managed to reach the half-century in just 43 games according to Official website of Bayern Munich.
In contrast, Haaland is behind with his 50 goals for Borussia Dortmund in 50 games.
Then comes distant Timo Konietzka, who took 63 games to score, with Uwe Seeler and Bayern legend Roy Makaay (both on 67 games) in fourth.

Surprisingly, Lewandowski is way down the list with the Poland international having made 91 appearances for 50 goals in the Bundesliga (Khelnow).
At 31, the England international shows no signs of slowing down in the goalscoring department and if things go to plan, his exploits will soon be rewarded in terms of trophies.
Kane is yet to win the majority of his career, and Bayern already have an eight-point lead over second-placed RB Leipzig in the Bundesliga table.
Last season’s champions, Leverkusen, are fourth and a mammoth 12 points after just 10 games, although Xabi Alonso’s men have a game in hand.
If Kane continues in vain, a maiden title won’t be long in coming.
