Harry Kane has scored his first goal against a Scottish side, firing in for Bayern Munich in their Champions League knockout play-off first leg at Celtic.
The 31-year-old has brought up his 29th goal from as many games in all competitions this season as he volleyed home from close range with his left foot.

The goal came as he connected with Joshua Kimmich’s deep corner from the left to put the German side 2-0 up.
Earlier, a thunderous strike from Michael Olise put the German giants 1-0 up just before half time.
It’s now seven goals in Europe’s premier competition this campaign for the England captain.
He is just one strike shy from matching last term’s tally of eight goals, where he finished as the joint top scorer alongside Kylian Mbappe.
But incredibly, he has scored against his first Scottish opponent – over 13 years after spurning a golden chance on his debut.
His first Tottenham outing came in a Europe League second leg qualifier against Hearts in August 2011.
Kane was elected to start after Spurs secured a 5-0 first leg victory at Tynecastle, and he won a penalty after being fouled by goalkeeper Jamie MacDonald.
But he saw his spot-kick well saved by MacDonald – the first of 11 penalties that he has missed from his career.
That outing proving to be his last game against a Scottish side until Wednesday’s outing at Celtic Park.
Tottenham failed to be matched up with Celtic and Rangers during Kane’s stay, while it’s Bayern first meeting with the Hoops since the 2017/18 campaign.
And for Kane, featuring at Parkhead has fulfilled a lifelong ambition after he recently declared he was buzzing to play in Glasgow.

And for Kane, featuring at Celtic Park has fulfilled a lifelong ambition after he recently declared he was buzzing to play in Glasgow.
He said: “I have never played at Celtic Park..
“But I’ve heard a lot about the great atmosphere. It will be a challenging game for us.
“I’m on a good run with scoring penalties [12 this season]. But a miss can happen – it’s happened before.
“I have various options that I can use when I am taking a penalty.”
