BERLIN (AP) — Harry Kane scored again and Bayern Munich stepped closer toward its 13th Bundesliga title in 14 years after beating Union Berlin 4-0 on Saturday.
Bayern Munich 4-0 Union Berlin
Kane scored after the break for his 31st league goal. He has seven more rounds to try and match Robert Lewandowski's season record of 41.
Serge Gnabry scored twice and Michael Olise also grabbed a goal for Bayern, taking the team's tally after 27 rounds to 97, on course to smash the season record of 101 goals set by Bayern in 1971-72.
"It'll fall," Bayern sports director Christoph Freund said of the record.
Midfielder Aleksandar Pavlović dropped out at short notice with hip problems and the Bavarian powerhouse was without three suspended players — Nicolas Jackson, Luis Díaz, Jonathan Tah — while Jamal Musiala, Alphonso Davies and regular goalkeeper Manuel Neuer were injured.
Bayern stayed nine points clear of Borussia Dortmund in the Bundesliga.
"We're right where we have to be and want to be," Kompany said of the team's form before its Champions League date with Real Madrid next month.
Dortmund 3-2 Hamburger SV
Ramy Bensebaini scored two penalties as Dortmund came from behind to beat Hamburger SV 3-2 at home to consolidate second.
Philip Otele and Albert Sambi Lokonga scored in the first half for Hamburg, while Felix Nmecha, whose mistake led to the second goal, also missed a penalty for Dortmund before the break.
Dortmund coach Niko Kovač sent on Serhou Guirassy and Bensebaini for the second half. Bensebaini took over penalty duties and Guirassy lifted his season tally to 13 goals.
Wolfsburg 0-1 Werder Bremen
Justin Njinmah scored in off the far post for Werder Bremen to beat Wolfsburg 1-0 away and boost its survival chances at the home team's expense.
Bremen's ultra supporters were reportedly late to the game because of a standoff with police outside the stadium. Their team's third win in four games lifted it to 13th — four points above the relegation zone — while Wolfsburg remained second to last after failing to win any of its last 10 games.
Wolfsburg was five points from safety before relegation rival St. Pauli plays Freiburg on Sunday.
Rhine Derby: Cologne 3-3 Borussia Mönchengladbach
Eric Martel scored late for Cologne to draw with Borussia Mönchengladbach 3-3 in the Rhine derby, a result that did little for either team with Cologne just outside the relegation zone and Gladbach only a point above Bremen.
Bayer Leverkusen 3-3 Heidenheim
Marvin Pieringer scored his second goal late as last-placed Heidenheim twice came from behind to draw with Bayer Leverkusen 3-3.
Heidenheim's prospects still look bleak, 11 points from safety, but it did stop a three-game losing run and next faces Gladbach, which remains in danger.
