Harry Kane scored from the penalty spot and Luis Diaz added another goal, leading Bayern Munich to a 2-0 victory over RB Leipzig, advancing to the semi-finals of the DFB-Pokal.
The English forward is on the verge of completing his trophy collection and keen to secure yet another title.
Bayern’s Big Cup Triumph
RB Leipzig thought they had taken an early lead, with Yan Diomande slipping past defenders to find Christoph Baumgartner, but VAR revealed an offside.
Kane had a significant opportunity, with his first effort cleared off the line. He later had a header blocked, and Diaz ended up shooting over the bar.
Baumgartner nearly scored before half-time, but Neuer made a crucial save against a powerful shot from David Raum.
In the second half, a penalty brought Kane back to his scoring ways after being fouled by Vandervoort, setting the stage for Bayern’s second goal shortly after by Diaz, who finished brilliantly following a pass from Olise.
It marks Bayern’s first semi-final appearance in this tournament since 2020.
