Another brace for Sir Harold of Kane in Pafos last night, he now has 17 goals (and 3 assists) in 9 games this season.

Kane also set a European record last week, he reached 100 goals for Bayern in his 104th game for the club, beating the record of 105 set by Erling Haaland (City) and Cristiano Ronaldo (Real Madrid).

Sevilla 4-1 Barcelona

'Liam Rosenior's Strasbourg' up to 3rd place after a 5-0 win

Mjallby now 2 points away from winning the Swedish league for the first time ever.

They've spent almost all their existence in the lower divisions and are from a 'remote fishing village with a population of 850 people'

Proper underdog 'stuff of miracles' type story. Very little money spent at all. Just good coaching and a real community spirit.

[Sanguine]

Remarkable story. Mjallby is actually merely a 'parish', far too small to be considered a town. That ground looks like a cold matchday experience.

Harry Kane becomes the first player to score 11 goals in the first six games of the Bundesliga season. 18 goals in ten games in all competitions.

In other family scenes, a successful week for the Kluiverts - Justin for Bournemouth on Friday night against Fulham, Ruben got his first Lyon goal last midweek in the Europa League, and 18 year old Shane scored for Barcelona in the UEFA Youth League.

UEFA meeting today to discuss whether they are going to try and stop Barcelona playing a league game in Miami and AC Milan playing a league game in Melbourne

UEFA gives approval for these 2 games to go ahead

Kane is having an insane start. Awesome for age, and just shows how good he can be when a club plays to his strengths

Great start for Modena in Serie B. having gone bankrupt 8 years ago, they were re-founded as a new club and started in Serie D for the 18-19 season. Now sitting top of Serie B

Avellino may be one to look out for this season. up in Serie A in the 1980's they then dropped down to Serie D and went bust. Won Serie C last season and look to have had a good start this season.

Seems to happen loads in Italy where teams go bust and go to the bottom
