Kane, Muller score for Bayern Munich to beat Freiburg at home

Harry Kane converted a penalty and Thomas Muller scored in his club-record 710th game as Bayern Munich beat Freiburg 2-0 in the Bundesliga on Sunday.

Muller replaced new signing Michael Olise in the 59th minute to break a tie with goalkeeping great Sepp Maier on 709 career games in all competitions for Bayern.

Muller scored in the 78th when he controlled a cross from Serge Gnabry with one touch to take the ball away from Freiburg's Maximilian Eggestein, then used his second touch to slam it past goalkeeper Florian Muller.

"Records aren't so important for me, to be honest, instead it's that I scored a really beautiful goal," Muller told broadcaster DAZN. "Outstanding technique and then it goes in too, that's what's fun for me."

The goal was Muller's 150th in his Bundesliga career and he has now scored in 16 consecutive German top-tier seasons going back to the 2009-10 campaign.

The 34-year-old forward was setting a club record for the second time in as many games after marking his 474th Bundesliga game for Bayern last week. That also broke a tie with Maier.

Earlier, Kane's first Bundesliga goal of the season gave Bayern the lead from the penalty spot after he won a spot kick when he headed the ball onto Freiburg defender Max Rosenfelder's outstretched arm.

Rosenfelder had seemed to raise the arm to steady himself as Kane jumped while holding his other shoulder. The referee didn't give the penalty on the field but acted after viewing a video replay.

Deep into added time, new Bayern signing Joao Palhinha gave away a penalty for handball but Freiburg's Lucas Höler fired over the bar. That ensured Bayern didn't concede in Vincent Kompany's first home game as coach.

Bayern are one of three Bundesliga teams to win both of their opening games this season, along with Heidenheim and Leipzig, which ended champion Bayer 04 Leverkusen's 15-month unbeaten league run Saturday.
