By Bayern Munich faced a tough 1-0 loss against Lazio in the first leg of the Champions League’s round of 16, failing to register a single shot on target out of their 16 attempts. The defeat added pressure on manager Thomas Tuchel, coming just four days after a disappointing loss in the Bundesliga.
Lazio’s captain, Ciro Immobile, capitalized on a penalty kick after Bayern was reduced to 10 men in the second half. Despite creating several opportunities, Bayern couldn’t convert their chances into goals.
“It’s been a tough week,” expressed Bayern striker Harry Kane. “We had some clear chances, but we weren’t able to take them. That’s football and part of being a striker: you’re going to miss them now and again.”
The loss, coupled with a recent 3-0 defeat against Bayer Leverkusen, increases the pressure on Bayern and Tuchel ahead of the return leg on March 5th. Despite the setbacks, Kane remains optimistic, emphasizing the team’s resilience and determination to turn things around.
