Harry Kane’s impressive run of scoring in every game comes to an end as he fails to score or assist in Bayern Munich’s 3-0 win over Gladbach.
Bayern Munich’s 3-0 win over Gladbach was a hard-fought victory for the German record champions, but it marked the end of Harry Kane’s incredible scoring streak. The English superstar went without a goal or assist for the first time in weeks, failing to continue his impressive run of scoring in every game.
Kane had been in top form, scoring in nine consecutive Bundesliga games, but it was not to be on this occasion. Despite being committed and looking for depth and finishing, he lacked that last bit of luck. A goal in the 62nd minute was ruled out for offside, and he was unable to make an impact on the game.
The match was a game of patience for Bayern, who struggled to break down Gladbach’s deep-lying opponents despite an early red card for Jens Castrop. Joshua Kimmich put Bayern ahead after an hour, before Raphael Guerreiro and Lennart Karl made the victory perfect.
Kane’s failure to score or assist was a rare occurrence this season, and it marked the end of his impressive streak. However, coach Vincent Kompany sees no cause for concern, praising Kane’s consistent performances and emphasising that his value goes beyond just scoring goals.
Kompany highlighted Kane’s involvement in several dangerous moves, often dropping back to get the game going and drawing opponents out of defence. “Kane remains an indispensable fixture in Bayern’s game,” Kompany said.
Despite the goalless performance, Kane’s form has been impressive, and he will be looking to bounce back in Bayern’s next match. The DFB Cup match at 1. FC Köln is already scheduled for next Wednesday, providing a new opportunity for Kane to continue his impressive form.
