In the first fixture after it was announced that Thomas Tuchel would leave the club at the end of the season Bayern Munich secure a crucial 2-1 win over RB Leipzig thanks to Harry Kane brace.

The England captain’s late strike snatched all three points for the Bavarian giants cutting the deficit to table topping Leverkusen to eight points. Meanwhile Leipzig remain in fifth just one point off the Champions League places.

The hosts had the better of a largely timid first half with Harry Kane hitting the post from a header while Leroy Sane squandered a golden chance as he attempted to round the goalkeeper. Leipzig defended well throughout the first period but offered little threat to Manuel Neuers goal.

However, the second half was a much different affair as Leipzig looked the better side and threatened to take the lead on multiple occasions. Yet, it was Kane who broke the deadlock with a typical close range instinctive finish.

Leipzig were not done though and continued to pile the pressure on and the eventually got their reward with a heavily deflected equaliser from Benajmin Sesko. Just as hope seemed lost for the hosts Kane stepped up again to snatch the game from Leipzig with a crisp half volley into the bottom.

The winner took his tally to 27 in the Bundesliga this season and gives Bayern Munich an improbable but not impossible mountain to climb in this title race.

Bayern Munich 2-1 RB Leipzig

A grateful Manuel Neuer clutches onto a loose ball and now Bayern will take as long as they want with every bit of play

HARRY KANE IS THE HERO! A great finish from the England captain who out of nothing directs a half volley into the far corner! A huge goal in the title race

Only four minutes for someone to find a winner!

Bayern win another corner and its a dangerous ball from Kimmich. It comes it De Ligt at the back post who opts to try find a teammate rather than shooting. The ball loops over everyone and out for another goalkick.

Three strikers on the field for Bayern now and they're really forcing the play now. Tel has had a shot blocked but beyond that there have been few opportunties for the winner

With Kim now on its a back 3 for the hosts with Kane alongside Tel up front. Kimmich is pushing on down the right and Guerreiro down the left. Will this move win the game for Bayern?

Oh that one will hurt. The cross comes in and is flicked on by Goretzka who finds Harry Kane unmarked and only six yards out. But he can't keep his header down and the ball loops over the bar

The substitutions from Leipzig send a message that they're happy with a point here. Bayern have got much more control of this game now and are playing most of their football in Leipzig's half.

Only 15 minutes left here as Bayern need a winner. There's been a lot less urgency in this second half and you wonder how long it will take until desperation sets in...
