English goal machine Harry Kane gave a brutally honest interview and criticized his teammates after Bayern Munich’s exit from the Champions League.
Kane (31) scored the opening goal at the San Siro, but Bayern Munich were still relegated from the Champions League after a 2-2 (4-3 aggregate) draw against Inter Milan on Wednesday night.
The last four in the Champions League are: Arsenal, Barcelona, Inter Milan and Paris Saint-Germain👏👏👏🥳🥳🥳
Inter advanced to the semi-finals, where they face a star-studded Barcelona team, while Bayern are undoubtedly left with a feeling of having wasted a chance to secure their seventh European Cup trophy.

This also means that Kane’s trophy drought continues – even though Bayern are currently six points ahead of Bayer Leverkusen in the Bundesliga, making it likely that he can finally celebrate his first titles this season.

The England captain did not avoid criticism of his teammates after the match:
Kane nevertheless stressed that the team did not lack goal-scoring ability:
German media press: “Sluggish first half, world class in glimpses”
The German media were not merciful in their assessments:
- Get German Football News gave Kane 6/10
- Sport1 was stricter and gave him 2.5/10 with the reasoning:
“He seemed quite lethargic in the first half hour and didn’t act particularly fast. He woke up a bit towards the end of the first half… and in the 52nd minute, he ecstatic the San Siro away field with his goal. Deliberate, calm, world-class. But in the tough moments, he wasn’t as present as you’d hope from a top player in a top game.”

Former Bayern pro Michael Ballack stated on DAZN:
Next stop for Kane?

- Can he finally break the “curse”?
