Harry Kane makes Bundesliga history after fourth hat-trick in Bayern’s huge win
Harry Kane makes Bundesliga history after fourth hat-trick in Bayern’s huge winBy PA Sport StaffEngland captain Harry Kane made Bundesliga history as he became the first man to score four hat-tricks in a debut season as Bayern Munich routed lowly Mainz 8-1. Faride Alidou put the visitors in front after just seven minutes and then restored their advantage after Franck Honorat had levelled. Thomas Isherwood’s own goal and a second from Christoph Baumgartner handed RB Leipzig a 2-0 win over rock-bottom Darmstadt, while Jeffrey Gouweleeuw’s first-half strike was enough to hand Augsburg a 1-0 win over Heidenheim. Portu’s sweet first-half strike and a deft toe-poke from Savio sealed a 2-0 victory at the Municipal de Montilivi Stadium in which Michel’s men created enough chances to have won far more comfortably. Real Sociedad needed a late goal from Andre Silva to maintain their bid for a top-six finish with a 3-2 win at Granada.

Ireland's Grand Slam hopes over after England loss at Twickenham
Ireland's Grand Slam hopes over after England loss at TwickenhamBy Mitch PhillipsMarcus Smith slotted a last-minute drop goal as England ended Ireland’s double Grand Slam dream with a tight 23-22 win on Saturday in Twickenham. After Scotland’s shock loss to Italy, Ireland knew victory would give them the title with a round to spare and set them up for back to back Grand Slams. They looked on course with a 12-8 half-time lead via four Jack Crowley penalties despite England scoring the only try through Ollie Lawrence. A second Lowe try put Ireland back in front, only for replacement fly-half Smith to send Twickenham wild at the death. Ireland have 16 points, with England, who visit France next week, second on 12.
