I Haven’t Scored Much Lately Because Goalkeepers Have Been Excellent
Kane: We Are a Mountain of Motivation, We Will Beat Inter and Advance
Harry Kane stated in the press conference ahead of Bayern Munich’s match against Inter that the Bavarians are fully motivated to defeat Inter and advance.
Bayern Munich has traveled to Milan needing to overturn a 2-1 deficit from the first leg against Inter at San Siro.
Harry Kane, Bayern’s English striker, said in the press conference that Bayern has arrived in Milan with maximum motivation and is confident they can overturn the loss at Allianz Arena and advance to the Champions League semifinals.
Has Inter’s excessive celebration in the first leg given you extra motivation?
We already have enough motivation. We are confident we can overturn the deficit and advance. We had many chances in the first leg, and tomorrow we will play our game and win.
You’ve been missing a lot of chances lately!
If the team wasn’t creating so many scoring opportunities, I’d be worried. Goalkeepers have been outstanding against us in recent matches, and this issue will be resolved. Tomorrow, we want to be ruthless and precise. We will definitely make better use of the many chances the team creates.
The match might go to penalties. Do you practice penalties?
I always practice penalties before such matches. I practiced today as well. We played well at Allianz Arena, and we are confident we can overturn the result tomorrow and advance.
How do you rate Inter as a team?
A very good team that excels both in attack and defense. They caused us a lot of problems, especially on the counterattack. In the Champions League quarterfinals, you face top-tier opponents. It will be a tough match.
Will Kim Min-jae play tomorrow after his terrible mistakes against Dortmund?
Actually, in such moments, a player has extra motivation to prove critics wrong. When the team concedes, the whole team is at fault, and when the team scores, it’s the result of the whole team’s effort. Min-jae knows he could have done better in that situation, but I think he has been one of our best players this season.
Will you be the Champions League top scorer this season?
Raphinha is there, Lewandowski is there, Mbappé is there. They are all great scorers still in the competition. Whoever becomes the tournament’s top scorer owes it to their team. Right now, my focus is on winning tomorrow’s match.
