Bayern sweeps Cologne: Kane scores twice – DFB Cup causes drama!
In the DFB Cup match between FC Bayern Munich and 1. FC Köln, the decision was clearly in favor of Munich. On October 29, 2025, while Cologne was first able to celebrate through Ragnar Ache in the 31st minute, the tide quickly turned. The deserved equalizer came just five minutes later: Luis Diaz scored the goal to make it 1-1, but not without a controversial offside as the VAR was not used. Harry Kane, who became the absolute match winner that evening, gave Bayern a 2-1 lead in the 38th minute with a remarkable shot.
Kane, who not only shone in this game but has already scored 22 goals in 14 competitive games across the league, continued his offensive power even after the break. In the 64th minute he headed the score to 3-1, and just a few minutes later, in the 72nd minute, Michael Olise rounded off the clear 4-1. Even though Cologne started the game well, they were ultimately defeated by a superior Bayern team who are now taking the next step towards defending their title. Other exciting encounters in the cup also took place, which the round of 16 will show us.
