Bayern Munich secured their place in the Bundesliga round of 16 with a convincing victory over Mainz on Saturday afternoon. The Bavarians, who were looking to bounce back from their defeat against Hoffenheim last week, dominated the game from start to finish and ran out comfortable winners.
The first half was all Bayern as they created numerous chances but failed to find the back of the net. However, the visitors' persistence paid off in the second half when Kane scored twice in a matter of minutes to put them ahead.
Kane's first goal came after just four minutes of the second half, his header finding the top corner to give Bayern a 1-0 lead. The second goal came two minutes later when Sané slotted home from close range to make it 2-0.
Mainz tried to mount a comeback in the second half, but Bayern's defense held firm and they were able to hold onto their lead until the final whistle.
Overall, it was another impressive display from Bayern Munich, who showed why they are one of the best teams in Europe. They will now face either Borussia Dortmund or RB Leipzig in the round of 16, where they should be expected to win comfortably.
