Former top-flight referee Keith Hackett stated that it was a “nailed on” red card for Kane, as he supposedly knew what he was doing during the incident, which left Gabriel injured. Despite this, only a yellow card was given to Kane, and a foul was called against him. Kane expressed surprise at the decision, also highlighting a missed penalty opportunity in their favor. The upcoming match sees Bayern as the favorites to advance to the semi-final, given their history of not being knocked out by Arsenal in the past.
Despite Bayern fans being banned from the Emirates for previous offenses, Kane anticipates a different atmosphere in the upcoming match at the Allianz Arena, hoping to capitalize on the support of their fans. Kane acknowledges the challenges of playing without fans and looks forward to the energy and support of the home crowd in the upcoming match against Arsenal. He also expressed a mutual respect with the Arsenal fans, emphasizing his enjoyment of the rivalry and the opportunity to perform at their home ground.
