In the last competitive game of the year, FC Bayern with top striker Harry Kane will be visiting VfL Wolfsburg on Wednesday evening (8:30 p.m.). VfL star Jonas Wind hopes that the Englishman will take a break from scoring goals there.
“I have a lot of respect for him as a striker. He’s great. But hopefully he won’t score against us. Then he can score as often as he wants in the other games,” joked the Dane in an interview with “WhoScored.com “.
Kane’s 16th Bundesliga game in the FC Bayern jersey is coming up for Lower Saxony. So far, the 30-year-old has 20 goals this season and is still on course for a record.
It was only in the 2020/21 season that Robert Lewandowski broke Gerd Müller’s 49-year-old record. The Polish superstar scored 41 goals for FC Bayern, while Müller previously held the record with 40 goals.
For Wind, it is no coincidence that so many goals are currently being scored in the Bundesliga. The way the teams play simply invites you to take photos.
FC Bayern has the top offensive in Europe
“The number of goals that a lot of strikers score is really good. In a lot of games it goes back and forth and you often win 3-2 instead of 1-0. That means a lot of goals are scored and as a striker that’s a good thing “You get a lot of chances. I’m happy to be here and I can’t complain,” said the goalgetter, who already has nine goals this season.
With FC Bayern, Bayer Leverkusen and RB Leipzig, the Bundesliga currently has three clubs in the top ten in the offensive ranking of the top five leagues. And that despite the fact that two fewer games have been played in Germany than, for example, in the Premier League. FC Bayern is even number one in Europe.
Meanwhile, Wind firmly believes that he can be the one to inflict a bitter defeat on Bayern shortly before Christmas. “I have the confidence that I have the quality to do a good job when I’m fit. I’ve shown that this season,” said the Danish international.
