UCL: Tuchel Urge Kane To Deliver Against Real Madrid

By Chimezie Nebolisa

Bayern Munich coach Thomas Tuchel called on Harry Kane to fire the German giants past Real Madrid and into the Champions League final, while revealing the striker's passion for coffee on Tuesday.

Kane has scored a career-best 44 goals in 44 matches across all competitions in his first year at Bayern, ahead of Wednesday's clash at the Santiago Bernabeu.

Kane, yet to win a trophy in his career, converted a penalty in the 2-2 first leg draw in Munich last week as six-time winners Bayern outplayed the record 14-time champions.

"I knew we'd get a big personality into the dressing room on top of everything you can analyse, goalscoring, movements, dealing with the pressure," Tuchel told a news conference.

"He was captain of Tottenham and is still captain of the English national team. He brought everything to the table that we could possibly hope for – and tomorrow he needs to prove the point and deliver."
