<p><a href="https://www.mid-day.com/sports/football/article/improving-harry-kane-hits-brace-as-bayern-beat-bremen-to-move-nine-clear-23479806" rel="none"><strong>Harry Kane</strong></a> said his two goals in Wednesday&rsquo;s 3-0 Champions League last 16 first-leg win over Bayer Leverkusen were &ldquo;probably&rdquo; the most important so far for Bayern Munich.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Kane&rsquo;s ninth-minute header and second-half penalty put Bayern in control of the tie ahead of next week&rsquo;s return leg against the German champions. Youngster Jamal Musiala also got on the scoresheet, capitalising on a fumble by goalkeeper Matej Kovar.</p>
<p>Asked if the goals were his most important so far, Kane said: &ldquo;Probably, I&rsquo;d say so. We knew what it was going to be going into this game. We knew the hype around this game and we stayed calm and I stayed calm.&rdquo;</p>
<p>Despite the impressive scoreline coach Vincent Kompany shot down suggestions his side&rsquo;s victory made a statement in the competition. &ldquo;There are no statements. [We will] Just focus on the next game,&rdquo; he said.&nbsp;</p>
<p>One grey cloud for the German giants was a calf injury to captain and goalkeeper Manuel Neuer, who had to be replaced by Jonas Urbig near the hour mark. The club later confirmed that Neuer will miss next week&rsquo;s return clash.</p>
