Kane scores hat-trick as Bayern clinch German Cup

Bayern München lifted the DFB Pokal after a controlled 3-0 win over Stuttgart in the final at the Olympiastadion Berlin. Although the first half remained goalless, Bayern dictated the contest with 64 per cent possession and greater attacking intent throughout.

The deadlock was broken on 55 minutes when Harry Kane struck for 1-0, with Michael Olise supplying the assist. That goal rewarded Bayern?s sustained pressure, and it gave them the platform to take full control of the final.

Stuttgart struggled to create clear chances, finishing with only eight shots and an expected goals figure of 0.50, while Bayern managed 11 attempts, six on target, and 1.98 expected goals. The Bavarians continued to press after the opener, and Kane doubled the lead on 80 minutes, this time set up by Luis Díaz.

There was still time for a third, as Kane completed his hat-trick from the penalty spot in stoppage time. With three goals and a dominant overall display, Bayern underlined their superiority and ended the final with a deserved victory.
