The personal accolades keep coming for Harry Kane, who has now won the Bundesliga Goal of the Season award.
The Bayern Munich striker topped the vote thanks to his incredible strike from his own half against Darmstadt on October 28.

Kane’s first season in Germany ended trophyless, but it wasn’t for the want of trying as he netted a career best 44 goals in all competitions.
That total saw him win the European Golden ahead of Stuttgart’s Serhou Guirassy, who he also beat to the Bundesliga top scorer award with 36 goals in 32 league games.
The England captain joined Bayern in a £100million deal from Tottenham, but was left frustrated as they gave up an 11-year Bundesliga title-winning streak to Xabi Alonso’s Bayer Leverkusen.
The game in which Kane scored the goal of the season, an 8-0 demolition of relegated Darmstadt, summed up the Bavarian’s season.

Capable of huge wins, Bayern also lacked consistency, and straight after that match they were knocked out of the DFB Pokal by Saarbrucken, closing another route for Kane to land the first trophy of his professional career.
In the Darmstadt match, Kane scored one of four hat-tricks he netted in his debut campaign, breaking numerous records in a flying start.
The 8-0 thrashing also saw a Bundesliga record itself, as the first-ever game to see three first-half red cards as two Darmstadt players received their marching orders after Joshua Kimmich’s fourth minute expulsion.
Discussing his goal post-match, Kane said: "I received the ball and saw out of the corner of my eye that the goalkeeper was in a strange position.
"I thought to myself: we're already four or five goals ahead, so why not?"
Along with the Goal of the Season gong, Kane won the Goal of the Month award on five out of a possible ten occasions.
