Bayern Munich striker Harry Kane admitted that Champions League suits him better than Bundesliga as he feels there is more space for him in Europe’s elite football competition. Kane scored a brace against Chelsea in Munich’s 3-1 UCL win on Wednesday.
The England International converted a penalty after he was brought down by Moisés Caicedo in the 27th minute. Kane then scored in the 63rd minute to give a comfortable win to his team
“I always feel like in the Champions League you create maybe more chances than the Bundesliga, the games are maybe a bit more open, and that suits me,” Kane told broadcaster DAZN.
“Hopefully I can get more than 11 this year,” he added, referring to his tally in the Champions League last season.
The 32-year-old striker said the aim is to keep getting better at the top level.
“It’s always the aim to improve and get better,” Kane said.
The lanky striker was delighted with the team’s performance against a quality opposition.
“Top performance against a really good side,” Kane said.
“We spoke before the game that we were playing the club world champions and we had to be on it from the start, and we were.”
The forward said they were able to create mistakes by putting the pressure on the opposition players.
“I think with the ball possession, making angles, helping each other. You saw me and Serge [Gnabry] drop in quite a lot to make it difficult for them to press. They were always kind of minus one and as the game went on, I felt like they got more tired, the spaces opened up and we were able to exploit that.”
“We talk a lot about when the other teams try and play, you know we’re always two or three seconds away from having a chance ourselves,” he said.
“You saw that with the pressure and you saw that throughout the whole game. There were opportunities that we had when we won the ball back quickly, so yeah, it kind of fell to me in a nice place and it was a good finish.”
Bayern Munich will next take on Hoffenheim on Saturday in the Bundesliga.
