Harry Kane scores double - including brilliant long-range strike - as Bayern Munich win six-goal thriller against Flamengo to reach Club World Cup quarter-finals
Harry Kane scored two goals as Bayern Munich beat Flamengo 4-2 on Sunday to book a place in the quarter-finals of the FIFA Club World Cup.
His first was a superb left-footed strike from long range, which put his side 2-0 up in the ninth minute after an Erick Pulgar own goal had given Bayern an early lead.
Kane then bagged again in the second half, this time with his right foot, after Leon Goretzka had also found the net.
Flamengo twice pulled goals back to close to within one of Bayern, first through Gerson and then courtesy of a penalty kick converted by former Chelsea and Arsenal midfielder Jorginho.
But the German champions rarely looked in danger.
Bayern will now face Paris Saint-Germain in the quarter-finals, after the Champions League winners thrashed Inter Miami 4-0 earlier on Sunday.
💥 Brilliant from Kane!
A powerful strike off the lower post and in — @FCBayern go 0-2 up in style.

Kane's first goal came from long range when he found the net with a fine low left-footed effort
Kane's first goal of the game was a thing of beauty.
The England captain collected the ball on the turn midway inside the Flamengo half. He then rode what appeared to be foul by a Flamengo player before smashing home a low shot from 23 yards.
Kane has now scored 41 goals in his second season with Bayern, having hit 44 in his first campaign with the German giants.
The England captain later doubled his tally with a powerful strike using his favoured right boot

Jonny Evans announces retirement and takes up new Manchester United role
Manchester United defender Jonny Evans has been handed the task of helping to progress the careers of the club's young players after confirming his retirement as a player. The 37-year-old, who won the Champions League, three Premier League titles, the FA Cup and two League Cups during his two stints at Old Trafford, has been appointed head of loans and pathways. Evans' role will see him work closely with director of football Jason Wilcox and the director of academy to ease developing talent into the first team. He told the club's official website: 'I want to officially announce my retirement from my playing career, not with sadness, but with pride, gratitude and excitement for the next chapter ahead. 'I'll be forever indebted to the managers, coaches, staff and, of course, my team-mates, that I have had the privilege of working alongside throughout my 20 years in professional football. 'My biggest and most heartfelt thanks must go to the fans who have supported me during every step of the journey. It's been an honour to be on the pitch and feel your passion home and away; I will be eternally grateful for every ounce of support. 'I am looking forward to working with the next generation of talented players to support them to reach their potential. Having had experience of loans myself, I know the crucial role that they can play within a player's development. 'I am excited to help further develop the pathway to our first team and continue the legacy of young players thriving at Manchester United.' Evans, who won 107 caps for Northern Ireland and was awarded an MBE for his services to football in 2023, emerged from United's academy to make 241 senior appearances for the club. He also had stints at West Brom and Leicester, with whom he tasted FA Cup success for the second time in 2021, and significantly had two loan spells at Sunderland under former Red Devils skipper Roy Keane early in a career which amounted to 536 games. His playing days effectively came to an end as last season drew to a close and, while he is close to completing his UEFA A licence, he insisted earlier this summer that he was in no rush to make a decision over his future. However now his contract at Old Trafford has formally expired, he is ready to launch the latest phase of his illustrious career. Welcoming Evans' appointment, Wilcox said: 'Having just finished his exceptional playing career, Jonny is the perfect role model for our young players. 'Jonny's knowledge of what it takes to succeed at Manchester United will be of great benefit to each of them as we continue to develop world-class talent capable of performing in our first team.'

Can Estevao Willian play against Chelsea at the Club World Cup?
Maresca called the situation 'a joke' and claimed that such repeated delays meant the United States probably was not the right choice of hosts for the inaugural expanded 32-team summer Club World Cup, but now his side must quickly focus for a return to Philadelphia, Chelsea's base for the competition where they previously lost to Flamengo and beat ES Tunis as they finished as runners-up in Group D following an opening win over LAFC in Atlanta.

West Ham beat competition from Brighton and Hove Albion and Chelsea to snare the Ghanaian star's signature. However, the club are open to cashing in on the attacker in order to fund their own summer rebuild for manager Graham Potter. The Telegraph have claimed that Kudus could be set to the unlikely destination of rivals Tottenham. READ MORE ON FOOTBALL CRYSTAL BALL Uefa POSTPONE decision on Crystal Palace's Europa League fate indefinitely The Europa League winners are said to be open to breaking their "unofficial transfer embargo" to sign Kudus. Should a transfer go through, he would be the first player to move directly to Spurs since Scott Parker in 2011. The former England international joined the Hammers' rivals after their relegation to the Championship. Parker was a shining light at Upton Park that season as he was named the PFA Players' Player of the Year despite the club finishing bottom.

Kudus starred for the Hammers in his debut season in the Premier League. He scored 14 goals and assisted six more across all competitions as the club finished 9th and reached the Europa League quarter-finals. Last season, he failed to continue his electrifying performances as West Ham slumped to a 14th-placed finish in the Premier League. 4 He could only muster five goals and four assists in 35 appearances in all competitions. Kudus has recently changed agents to the renowned sports management firm ROOF amid speculation over his future. West Ham are yet to add to their squad this summer despite the exits of long-serving players Aaron Cresswell, Vladimir Coufal and Lukas Fabianski. There is still uncertainty over the future of Michail Antonio with his contract set to expire. The club's Premier League record goalscorer has not played for the club since his horror car crash in December. But he has made his return to the pitch as he appeared for Jamaica in the 1-0 Gold Cup loss to Guatemala earlier this month. 4 TRANSFER NEWS LIVE - KEEP UP WITH ALL THE LATEST FROM A BUSY SUMMER WINDOW
