Kane keeps Bayern Munich alive

Bayern Munich beats Leipzig 2-1 at home and moves back to within -8 of Bayer Leverkusen first in the Bundesliga standings. The German champions, coming off three knockouts in a row between the league and Champions League, reared their heads again at home but struggled to get the better of Leipzig, bent 2-1 at the Allianz Arena thanks to a goal scored in the recovery.

Tuchel’s team clung to Harry Kane: the former Tottenham striker scored on 56'and then repeated in 91' after Sesko’s momentary equalizer for Leipzig. For the English bomber è the 27th goal in the league, in 23 games.

After the match Tuchel spoke proudly: "We played a very good first half, but we couldn’t take the lead. The second half è was a little bit complicated. We scored the 1-0 when Leipzig was on the rise, and we reacted well after the 1-1 and found the decisive goal in the final. All in all è a deserved victory. Today’s win è good for the players, è good for all of us in the club".
