Harry Kane's double delight: Home heroics propel Bayern Munich to victory

Harry Kane scored twice on his home Bundesliga debut for Bayern Munich as the German champions beat Augsburg 3-1 on Sunday.

The England captain put Bayern into a 2-0 half-time lead with a 40th-minute penalty at the Allianz Arena before claiming his second of the game after 69 minutes.

Bayern had initially gone in front when Felix Uduokhai inadvertently diverted into his own net after a Leroy Sane shot rebounded off a post. Dion Beljo scored the visitors' late consolation.

Kane's goals rounded off a great week days after the striker's wife gave birth to the couple's fourth child.

"Scoring goals is the main reason I'm here and it's great to get a couple today," said Kane in a post-match TV interview.

"I had another chance I could have scored but, overall, I am delighted with the result and to have contributed as well."

Elsewhere, 10-man Frankfurt snatched a 1-1 draw at Mainz with an injury-time equaliser from Omar Marmoush. Ansgar Knauff had been sent off just after the hour.
