FC Bayern scored ten goals in the opening game of the club World Cup against Auckland City. Harry Kane was not among the scorers – that was now commented on Lothar Matthäus.
The club World Cup could not have started better for FC Bayern. The German record champion hit ten times against Auckland City. Kingsley Coman, Michael Olise and Thomas Müller Double, Jamal Musiala even triple. Sacha Boey also contributed a hit. Harry Kane was not among the scorers. The striker scored for England at the beginning of the month and still has to wait for his first jubilation at the club World Cup. This now commented on Lothar Matthew in his column at Sky.
The record national player wrote: “If he was with the national team, he has to be built up again and again. Bavaria is fun, joy and offensive in the foreground, and England is not even working at the moment.” Matthäus feels it “sad to look” if you know “how professionally Kande can do his work”.
Then the 64-year-old took out something-towards the current national coach of England. Matthäus continued about Thomas Tuchel and Kane: “Under the current coach Tuchel – as already under his predecessor Southgate – he does not seem to be happy. At Bavaria, he has a different body language than in the national team.”
Kane came to FC Bayern in the summer of 2023 and since then scored 92 goals in the dress of the German record champion. Last season the striker scored 26 goals and ten assists in the Bundesliga. In total, Kane scored 38 times in 47 games in the 2024/25 season.
