Ball Possession
However, this season has been challenging for Bayern, with their Bundesliga dominance overshadowed by Bayer Leverkusen and an early exit from the German Cup. Now, the Champions League remains their last opportunity for silverware.
In the quarterfinals of the Champions League, Bayern faces Arsenal, a team that Kane considers his fiercest rival.
The first leg takes place in London, where Kane will likely be the target of jeers from Arsenal fans.
His goal-scoring prowess makes him the biggest threat to Arsenal’s defenders. Arsenal forward Gabriel Jesus even hailed him as the best finisher in the world, emphasizing Kane’s consistency against the Gunners—14 goals in 17 games across all competitions.
For Kane, this match represents a crucial chance to lift a trophy this season. If Bayern can overcome Arsenal, it might be his last opportunity to add silverware to his collection.
