'So good to be back!' - Harry Kane sends message after getting off the mark immediately for Bayern Munich in DFB-Pokal season-opening win

The Bundesliga giants kicked off the 2024-25 season with a thumping 4-0 win over Ulm in a DFB Pokal first-round clash on Friday. Star striker Kane, who started the game on the bench, came on as a substitute in the 63rd minute replacing Jamal Musiala and netted the team's fourth and final goal in the 93rd minute. Earlier Thomas Muller had netted a first-half brace while Kingsley Coman scored the third goal.

Kane, who joined Bayern's pre-season late after guiding England to the Euro 2024 final, had appeared in a couple of friendly matches against Tottenham Hotspur and WSG Tirol before finally playing his first competitive match of the new campaign. The player was elated after contributing to his team's win as he shared a cheerful message on social media.

On Instagram, the striker wrote, "So good to be back! Started the season with a win and a goal. Well done boys."

The 31-year-old Three Lions skipper could be next seen in action on Tuesday as Vincent Kompany's side play their final pre-season friendly against Grasshoppers before beginning their Bundesliga journey on August 25 against Wolfsburg.
