Bayern Munich's English striker, Harry Kane, etched his name in Champions League history on Tuesday night.

Despite a thrilling 2-2 draw against Real Madrid in the first leg of their semi-final tie, Kane's contribution secured a record-breaking moment.

The action-packed match at the Allianz Arena saw goals from Kane, Leroy Sane, and a brace from Vinicius Jr. However, it was Kane's penalty conversion that stole the spotlight.

This goal not only helped Bayern secure a crucial away draw, but also propelled Kane into the record books.

With 11 goal contributions (eight goals and three assists) in the Champions League this season, Kane has become the English player with the most in a single campaign.

This achievement surpasses the previous record held jointly by Steven Gerrard (10) and David Beckham (10).

Kane's phenomenal debut season at Bayern Munich continues to impress, with his goal tally reaching a staggering 43 in all competitions across 43 appearances.

The England captain will be looking to build upon his historic performance and lead Bayern to victory when they face Real Madrid again next week in the second leg of the Champions League semi-final.
