Against Union, there were actually opportunities for far more than four goals. According to sporting director Christoph Freund, \u201ctwo or three\u201d more would have been possible \u2013 and that\u2019s actually an understatement. Munich had 31 shots on goal, more than in any other Bundesliga match this season. Lennart Karl and Harry Kane both squandered two clear-cut chances rather miserably.<\/p>\n
It was particularly bitter for Kane, who \u2013 as the second-highest goalscorer \u2013 is chasing Robert Lewandowski\u2019s record of 41 goals from the 2020\/21 season. After four consecutive braces, the English striker had failed to score in his last two matches. Due to calf problems, he was not in the squad against Borussia M\u00f6nchengladbach, and against Bayer Leverkusen he only came on as a substitute.\u00a0<\/p>\n
In the clash with Union, Kane had a total of eleven shots on goal, the highest tally for a single player in a match this season. However, partly due to the two missed chances, he scored just one goal and now stands on a total of 31. To break the record, he must increase his already outstanding average of 1.19 goals per game to 1.57 in the remaining Bundesliga fixtures. “It\u2019s definitely possible,” said Kane.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Against Union, there were actually opportunities for far more than four goals.
