Kane's pen #10 launches Bayern past Gladbach

Reading Time: 2min | Sat. 11.01.25. | 23:16

Home team's custodian Moritz Nicolas played the game of his career, making as many as nine saves, but eventually fell from the spot - 1-0

Even when they find scoring difficult, Bayern Munich win in Bundesliga. Today, their problem had a name - Moritz Nicolas. Borussia Monchengladbach custodian collected as many as nine stops, and had it not been for Harry Kane and his penalty effort, the 27-year-old would have been a hero.

This way, the Bavarians emerged victorious 1-0 and the decisive moment occurred in the 68th minute after Lukas Ullrich recklessly tackled Michael Olise in the box, awarding the visitors a spot kick. Kane took responsibility for the tenth time this season and was impeccable.

In the end, the penalty did make the only difference, but looking more thoroughly, it's unbelievable that Bayern did not score a couple more goals. On the other hand, Monchengladbach failed to make a single attempt on target and deservedly lost the duel.

Bayern again escaped the second-placed Bayer Leverkusen to a four-point difference, while Borussia are tenth, four points behind the TOP 4 and a Champions League battle.
