Bayern celebrate Kane with six-goal Magdeburg rout

Bayern Munich marked Harry Kane's Ballon d'Or triumph with a convincing 6-1 win over second-tier Magdeburg at the Allianz Arena, despite leaving the England striker on the bench throughout the match.

Kane received a guard of honour from his teammates before kick-off, with 75,000 supporters celebrating his achievement. Michael Olise scored twice, while Ismael Saibari, Alphonso Davies, Nathaniel Brown and teenager David Santos Daiber also found the net. Magdeburg briefly threatened an upset when Mateusz Zukowski equalised after Olise's opener, but Saibari restored Bayern's lead before half-time.

Olise converted a penalty early in the second half, with Lennart Karl setting up goals for Davies and Brown before Santos Daiber completed the scoring in stoppage time. Coach Vincent Kompany was also discharged from hospital five days after collapsing during training, with Bayern now turning their attention to Saturday's Bundesliga clash with Borussia Dortmund.

"The win is what matters most," Undav said. "I honestly don't care whether I'm the one who scores, and that's the truth. We won, we're through to the next round - on we go."
