Kane’s Bayern Munich Nightmare: German Media Slams Striker After Aston Villa Defeat
Harry Kane’s struggles in the Champions League continued as Bayern Munich suffered a 1-0 defeat to Aston Villa at Villa Park. The English striker was heavily criticized by the German media for his lackluster performance, with one outlet giving him a rating of just 5 out of 6.
Kane failed to find the net against Villa, with Bayern’s best chances coming from Michael Olise’s curling effort and Serge Gnabry’s one-on-one opportunity. However, Villa goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez was in impressive form, making several crucial saves to deny the German giants.
The German press were brutal in their assessment of Kane’s display, with Bild describing him as "invisible" and stating that he only managed one shot on goal in the entire game. The outlet’s rating of 5 out of 6 is a damning indictment of Kane’s performance, with 6 being the worst rating in their system.
Speaking after the game, Kane acknowledged that it was a tough night for Bayern, but insisted that they would learn from the defeat. "It’s one of those where the ‘keeper has had a fantastic game for them," he said. "We could’ve been out there another 20 minutes and the ball would not have gone in the net. A tough defeat but we move on."
Bayern’s manager, Vincent Kompany, will be hoping that his team can bounce back from this defeat and get their Champions League campaign back on track. With Kane struggling to find his form, the pressure will be on the English striker to deliver in their next game.
