Harry Kane Breaks Trophy Drought with Bayern Munich at Former Club Tottenham

Harry Kane has finally ended his trophy drought with Bayern Munich, securing a memorable win in the Visit Malta Cup at his former club Tottenham Hotspur.

The striker’s long-awaited triumph came at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, where he spent 14 trophy-less years. Kane came off the bench in the second half to help guide the German side to a 3-2 victory.

Former Spurs defender Eric Dier also made a second-half appearance and claimed a winners’ medal at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium after he joined Kane in being presented a special commemorative gift by ex-player Ledley King before the match.

Kane, however, made little impact, taking just one shot in a quiet display. It was his first return to his old club, where he scored 280 goals, but he seemed content to let his teammates do the heavy lifting.

Vincent Kompany’s side then raced into the lead through a Serge Gnabry finish before club legend Thomas Muller rubbed in the misery for Tottenham by scoring from a free-kick whipped into the box.

Kulusevski provided some late hope after he turned in Lucas Bergvall’s clever ball but it was not enough to deny Kane the sweet, yet unfamiliar, taste of victory on a warm and humid August day.
