Title curse continues! Kane loses seventh final
He is and remains the unlucky man of world soccer! Once again Harry Kane had his fingertips on a trophy, once again the star striker ended a tournament without a title. With his "Three Lions" losing to Spain in the European Championship final, a seemingly endless run of misfortune continues, with seven finals now lost.
One after the other: In the 2016/17 Premier League season, the then Tottenham striker had to settle for second place behind Chelsea FC. His pursuit of the Premier League title was not crowned with success in the following years either.
So he had to win the Champions League title! In 2019, Kane and Co. made it all the way to the final of the premier class - where Spurs lost 2-0 to league rivals Liverpool.
Things didn't get any better even in Munich
The three-time Premier League top scorer (2016, 2017 and 2021) also failed to score at cup level, twice losing the Carabao Cup final with Tottenham (2015 against Chelsea and 2021 against Manchester City), which is why Kane sought his fortune at FC Bayern from 2023. While the German record champions had won the German Bundesliga eleven times in a row, their run of success came to an end with the arrival of the Briton, with Munich even talking about the "Kane curse". Bayern also lost 3-0 to Leipzig in the Super Cup.
And at national team level? Things didn't go any better there; the 2021 European Championship title was within their grasp, but once again Kane lost out in the final. Instead, Italy lifted the trophy in a penalty shoot-out. And like the Amen in prayer, it wasn't enough for the big triumph this year either. Harry Kane remains haunted by the title curse ...
