# Bayern Munich Dominates 1. FC Köln in Bundesliga Round 2 with Kane's Double and Musiala's Assists
Bayern Munich continued their strong start to the Bundesliga season as they comfortably defeated 1. FC Köln 4-1 in their second match of the campaign. The game was a clinical display of attacking prowess, with Bayern’s young stars stepping up in key moments.
The match got off to a flying start as Bayern took control early. Just 10 minutes into the game, Harry Kane scored his first goal of the season, slotting home from close range after a well-worked move. The 29-year-old, who joined Bayern on a free transfer this summer, proved his worth with a second goal in the 32nd minute, finishing off a counter-attack with a powerful strike. Kane’s double put Bayern ahead 2-0, and while Köln fought back, the visitors couldn’t capitalize on their chances.
One of the standout performers of the match was Bayern’s young midfielder, Jamal Musiala. The 19-year-old had a huge impact on the game, creating two goals for his teammates. First, Musiala played a perfectly weighted through ball to Kane, allowing the English striker to slot home his second goal. Later, Musiala delivered a cross that found its way to Leroy Sane, who made it 4-1 with a clinical finish in the 57th minute. Musiala’s vision and creativity were instrumental in breaking down Köln’s defense, showcasing his growing influence at the highest level.
Despite the lopsided scoreline, Köln showed moments of promise, especially in the second half. A goal from Anthony Modeste in the 70th minute gave the hosts hope, but Bayern’s defense held firm, led by the commanding presence of Dayot Upamecano and the sharp reactions of goalkeeper Alexander Nubel.
Bayern’s manager, Julian Nagelsmann, praised his side’s performance after the match. “We played a great game,” Nagelsmann said. “Harry Kane was outstanding, and Jamal Musiala was fantastic with his assists. It’s a good win, and we’ll take the confidence into our next game.”
This victory extends Bayern’s unbeaten run to three games and cements their position at the top of the Bundesliga table. With Kane and Musiala in top form, Bayern looks like a formidable force this season.
The match also highlighted the importance of young players in Bayern’s squad, with Musiala continuing to prove he can be a difference-maker at the highest level. As the season progresses, fans will be eager to see how Bayern can build on this performance and maintain their dominance in the league.
