German Media Slams Harry Kane: Bayern Munich have been incredible this season. The German giants were netting goals like nothing to the opponents’ goalpost up until last week, thanks to the incredible form of English striker Harry Kane.
Critics were all praising Kane for his blistering form, scoring 10 goals already from all competition in this season. But a game on the last Sunday changed everything. It was when Bayern Munich met the defending champions Bayer Leverkusen. The two mammoths of the German league held each other for a draw in a match that could have had a big impact on the title race.
German Media Slams Harry Kane for Disappearing in Big Games
Following the match, German media criticized the Englishman for disappearing in the big games like what happened against Leverkusen. According to a German journalist, if Kane disappears in the big matches, scoring 3 goals against a lower-ranked team like Kiel is no good.
“Lots of effort, too little success. Harry Kane is hanging around alone up front. What good are three goals against Kiel if he doesn’t even get a shot on goal in a big game like yesterday? Fairness dictates that we shouldn’t unleash the Kane-can’t-win-a-title curse now. Especially since he had to leave injured.”
Despite the tie, Bayern still leads on the Bundesliga points table with 13 points from 5 games. Bayern has only dropped 2 points so far, that too in the Sunday match. On the other hand, Leverkusen sits at fourth with 10 points with 3 wins and a loss despite being tied with Bayern in the last match.
