Heidenheim (Germany), Apr 19 (AP) Harry Kane scored his 60th Bundesliga goal in his 60th game to help Bayern Munich defeat Heidenheim 4-0 and close in on regaining the title on Saturday. Kane scored the opening goal with a low shot from just outside the penalty area in the 13th minute and nears what would be the first major team trophy of a career filled with individual scoring accolades.

No repeat of a tough defeat =================== Bayern had a 2-0 lead before collapsing to lose 3-2 the last time it played in Heidenheim. It was a telling moment as Bayern surrendered the Bundesliga title last season to Leverkusen. This time, Bayern didn't ease up. Konrad Laimer scored Bayern's second goal on the counter six minutes after Kane's opener and Kane played a part in the buildup as Kingsley Coman made it 3-0 in the 36th on the rebound after Raphael Guerreiro's shot was saved. Joshua Kimmich added the fourth in the second half. Players hurt in collision ================ A painful-looking collision between Leipzig goalkeeper Peter Gulacsi and Holstein Kiel defender David Zec overshadowed their 1-1 draw. Gulacsi and Zec collided while sprinting to reach the ball and both were substituted, with Gulacsi leaving the field on a stretcher. Gulacsi was conscious and went to hospital for tests, Leipzig said. Soon after, Benjamin Sesko's penalty salvaged a draw for Leipzig, which lost ground in the race to qualify for the Champions League. Leipzig stayed fourth but fifth-placed Freiburg was a point behind following its 3-2 win over Hoffenheim. Mainz was sixth after conceding late in a 2-2 draw with Wolfsburg. Werder Bremen rose two places to seventh by beating Bochum 1-0.
