Union Berlin suffered a 1-5 defeat against Bayern Munich, with Harry Kane scoring his 40th goal of the season as Thomas Tuchel’s team secured a significant victory in the Bundesliga.

Harry Kane, the star striker for FC Bayern München, had plenty to celebrate after his impressive performance in the Bundesliga match against 1. FC Union Berlin. The match took place at An der Alten Foersterei in Berlin, Germany on April 20, 2024.

Kane’s goal-scoring prowess was on full display as he netted his 40th goal of the season, helping Bayern Munich secure a resounding 5-1 victory over Union Berlin. The Englishman showcased his skill with a stunning 25-yard free-kick, which marked his 33rd league goal of the season and his 40th goal in all competitions.

The match started with a bang as Leon Goretzka opened the scoring for Bayern with an equally impressive finish. The team continued to dominate their opponents throughout the second half, with Thomas Muller adding two goals to his tally on his 400th start for the Bavarians. Mathys Tel also found the back of the net for Bayern, while Yorbe Vertessen scored a late consolation goal for Union Berlin.

Despite their convincing win, Bayern Munich’s chances of clinching the Bundesliga title have been dashed, as Bayern Leverkusen secured the league title the previous weekend. This ended Bayern’s remarkable 11-year streak of winning the title. Currently, Thomas Tuchel’s side sits in second place, three points ahead of third-placed Stuttgart, who have a game in hand.

On the other hand, Union Berlin finds themselves in a precarious position, just three points above the relegation play-off spot occupied by Mainz. Their battle to avoid relegation will likely hinge on their upcoming crucial clash with Bochum, who are one place and two points below them in the standings. This match, scheduled for May 5, will be of utmost importance for Union Berlin’s survival in the Bundesliga.
