So, Bayern Munich just whacked Dinamo Zagreb (who were doing their best Hamburg SV impression) 9-2 on the first match of the revamped Champions League first phase. Records were surely broken during that massive win, and that’s what we have today.
Peno-ltimate record goalscorer
That pun is a play on Harry Kane’s massive performance last night as he became the first player to convert three penalties in a single game (as captured by Twitter account @iMiaSanMia). On the other hand, Real Madrid had a penalty overturned. How the turntables.
The 31-year-old striker also surpassed Manchester United great Wayne Rooney for most goals by an Englishman in the Champions League. Kane has 29 goals before last night, and is now on 33; three better than “Wazza”.
