Kane strikes twice as Bayern eliminate Benfica from Club World Cup, book PSG showdown

Bayern Munich's two-goal hero, Harry Kane




Harry Kane scored twice as Bayern München sunk Flamengo in a Hard Rock Stadium thriller to reach the FIFA Club World Cup quarter-finals.

Vincent Kompany’s team will now take on Paris Saint-Germain for a semi-final place at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta on Saturday.

Bayern raced into a two-goal lead, Erick Pulgar inadvertently heading into his own net and Kane’s deflected drive going in off the post.

A rasping strike from Gerson halved the deficit, but Leon Goretzka sent the Bavarians in 3-1 up at the break. Jorginho pulled one back from the spot after Michel Olise had been penalised for handball.

As Flamengo went all out for the equaliser, however, Kane killed off their hopes, an exquisite take and immaculate finish sealing victory. (FIFA.COM, excluding headline)
