Fans of football have reacted strongly to Bayern Munich’s recent loss to Bayer Leverkusen in the Bundesliga, suggesting that Harry Kane and Eric Dier have brought Tottenham’s trophy curse with them to Bavaria.
In the crucial top-of-the-table match, Bayern was defeated 3-0 and Leverkusen now leads by five points in the Bundesliga. Xabi Alonso’s team is now a strong favorite to win the German championship for the first time in history.
Kane was isolated and Dier struggled in defense during the match, leading fans to joke on social media that their move to Bayern in search of trophies has only made things worse. The last time Bayern failed to win a trophy was in the 2011/12 season when they were runners-up in the league, DFB-Pokal, and the Champions League.
Despite Kane’s impressive goal-scoring record in Germany and Dier’s move from Tottenham, Bayern’s chances of winning silverware this season are fading. On the other hand, unbeaten Leverkusen continues their drive towards a maiden Bundesliga title.
