Harry Kane, who scored four goals against Zagreb in the Champions League, changed history itself

Kane played the first leg of the UEFA Champions League phase in 2024-2025 against Dynamo Zagreb at Allianz Arena in Munich, Germany, early on the 18th (Korea time). The score was unbelievable that it was a Champions League game. Munich won by a whopping 9 to 2. At the center was Kane, who scored four goals alone.
Kane scored three goals on penalties alone on the day. He then added one more goal. Zagreb's defense simply couldn't handle Kane.
Thanks to this crazy performance, Kane now has his name firmly engraved in English football history. The previous records were undoubtedly destroyed. British media outlet The Sun reported on Kane's achievements, saying, `Cain, who played an incredible game in the Champions League, broke three records at once.'

Rooney scored 30 goals in 85 appearances. This was the most goals scored by an English player in the Champions League before Kane appeared. However, Kane played 40 games less than Rooney, but surpassed his record of most goals by three times. Now it will be difficult to compare Rooney and Kane on the same line.

There is also a record of the first in history. He became the first player in the history of the Champions League to achieve a hat trick with only penalty kicks. This record is likely not to be broken for quite some time because of its specificity.
Kane is showing off his stronger scoring ability this season and moving toward the only one he doesn't have. He also shot a hat trick in the match against Holstein Kiel in the Bundesliga before the Champions League game. As a result, Kane set a new record of 50 offensive points in the Bundesliga. Kane achieved the previous record of 43 games for Elling Holan, who moved to Manchester City, in just 35 games. This is why Kane can be called the 'best goalscorer of our time'.
