BERLIN (AP) — Harry Kane scored his 34th and 35th Bundesliga goals of the season for Bayern Munich to warm up for Real Madrid with a 2-1 victory over Eintracht Frankfurt on Saturday.
The win ensured Bayern qualified for next season’s Champions League but it arguably came at a price for this season’s competition, as Konrad Laimer and Matthijs de Ligt went off with injuries.
Bayern coach Thomas Tuchel was already thinking of Madrid’s visit for the first leg of their semifinal on Tuesday as he made a host of changes from the team that played Union Berlin last weekend. He again left out Jamal Musiala and Leroy Sané. Both face a race against time to be fit for Tuesday.
Kane opened the scoring after a fine run from Laimer to set him up, then restored Bayern’s lead from the penalty spot in the second half.
It was the England captain’s 42nd goal across all competitions for Bayern this season – a personal record – and his 400th altogether for club and country.
