Kane set up Olise for the opening goal in the 23rd minute, and then showcased his skills by dribbling down the right and delivering a pinpoint pass for Jamal Musiala to score soon after.

Olise then assisted Kane's 57th-minute goal, the England captain's 10th goal so far for Bayern this season in six games all competitions.

Olise scored again and Kane set up Serge Gnabry to make it five against Bremen, whose only win against Bayern dating back to 2008 came this January in Munich.

Kane scored his first Bundesliga goal on debut at Bremen in August last year and now has 41 league strikes, more than any other English player.

"We've got so much quality up front and we're having fun playing football," Musiala told Sky, adding "but we will face tougher opponents."
