MEN’S FOOTBALL: Harry Kane bagged a hat-trick as unbeaten Bayern Munich beat Bavarian neighbours Augsburg 3-0 to move six points clear in the Bundesliga.

Mario Gotze netted the only goal of the game as second-placed Eintracht Frankfurt edged out Werder Bremen 3-0 while third-placed Leipzig surprisingly lost 4-3 at Hoffenheim.

Kane has now usurped Erling Haaland as the fastest player to score 50 goals in the Bundesliga.

Zagar will spearhead the new-look Perry Barr-based team that has also added former Premiership winner Tobias Musielak to their squad.
