Boniface still not good enough to start as centurion Kane-led Bayern Munich flog Werder Bremen

In a masterful performance at the Allianz Arena, Harry Kane shattered a club record by scoring his 100th goal for FC Bayern, leading the charge in a dominant 4-0 thrashing of Werder Bremen. 

The English star reached the century mark in an astonishing 104 games, becoming the fastest player in Bayern history to do so.

Kane's landmark achievement was the highlight of a flawless Bundesliga encounter for the champions. The win, their fifth straight to start the season, firmly establishes them at the top of the table. 

While the celebrations were centred on Kane's brilliance, the match also raised questions about the role of Nigerian striker Victor Boniface, who remained on the bench until the 61st minute.

Bayern's attack was relentless from the start, leaving Bremen's defense gasping for air. The pressure paid off in the 22nd minute when Jonathan Tah capitalised on a precise cross from Michael Olise. 

Just before halftime, Kane stepped up to the spot and calmly converted a penalty to secure his historic 100th goal for the club.

With the game effectively decided, the focus shifted to the sidelines. Boniface, a key figure in recent seasons, was only introduced with his team already down by two goals. 

Boniface has featured for his new club from the bench since his celebrated move on loan from former champions Bayer Leverkusen.

For Bayern, the win sends a powerful message to their rivals. With Kane's prolific form, their attack appears unstoppable. 

Meanwhile, Boniface slammed by his boss faces a personal challenge, as he will need to prove he can stake a claim to a starting berth in the Bremen starting lineup. 

The competition for places is a healthy problem for the visitors, but for Boniface, it puts his future role under intense scrutiny.
