Harry Kane, the Bayern Munich striker, has offered insights into his team’s disappointing loss to Lazio in the Champions League round of 16 clash on Wednesday. Kane highlighted a lack of energy and confidence, particularly noticeable in the second half, as contributing factors to Bayern’s defeat.
Bayern’s struggles were evident as they failed to muster a single shot on target against the Serie A side. The match took a turn for the worse when Dayot Upamecano was sent off for conceding a penalty in the second half, ultimately leading to Lazio’s victory courtesy of Ciro Immobile’s 69th-minute penalty.

Even Kane himself experienced a missed opportunity, failing to convert a golden chance from close range early in the match. The collective shortcomings and missed chances underscored Bayern’s lackluster performance on the night.
Kane told TNT Sports: “Really tough week. In the first half, we started well and had clear chances, one for myself. In these games, they are big moments.
“The second half was disappointing. We came out with less energy and less confidence. Too many balls were given away. We got punished. Once you go down to 10 men it is always difficult. We just need to turn it around. One game or spark can turn it around.”
