Bayern Munich striker Harry Kane returns to north London to face old foes Arsenal in Tuesday's Champions League quarter-final and finds himself nursing a familiar problem.
Bayern Munich striker Harry Kane returns to north London to face old foes Arsenal in Tuesday's Champions League quarter-final and finds himself nursing a familiar problem.
This time, however, Kane is wearing the red and white of Bayern Munich, a proud club who have collapsed under the weight of Xabi Alonso’s incredible Bayer Leverkusen this season. And while Kane would have envisioned a happier north London homecoming after his 100 million euro move, Tuesday gives him the perfect chance to sink the knife into an Arsenal side lacking in European football pedigree.Another man hoping to silence the doubters is Bayern manager Thomas Tuchel, whose greatest managerial successes have been in the Champions League.
Tuchel said “none of those five have been rested”, but all are expected to make the trip to London, with Neuer and Sane almost certain to play. Mueller pointed to his “experience” in football and said critics should hold off until there was nothing left to play for.Despite their current predicament, both Bayern and Kane can take solace from their records against Arsenal.
Six-time European champions, Bayern’s record against Arsenal is however a reminder of how much things have changed between the sides. Liverpool's Premier League title challenge was dented by spectacular goals from Bruno Fernandes and Kobbie Mainoo, who snatched a 2-2 draw for Manchester United on Sunday.
