H ARRY KANE said his first team title was “worth the wait,” after his league-winning Bayern Munich side were presented with the Bundesliga shield yesterday. Champions heading into the game, Bayern beat Borussia Monchengladbach 2-0 at home, with Kane scoring the opener with a header after 31 minutes, his 25th league goal of the season. Drenched with beer after being chased and doused by teammates on the Allianz Arena pitch, Kane told Sky Germany the trophy was “a long time coming”. “It’s cold, but there’s going to be a few more today for sure,” a soaked Kane told reporters. The 31-year-old had lost six finals in his career – three with former club Tottenham, two with England and one with Bayern – as well as a second-placed

“And of course I think we’d all be happy to see Spurs win that in a couple of weeks.” After being presented with the trophy, Bayern captain Manuel Neuer gave it to Thomas Muller, who was playing his last home game for the club, to hoist toward the Munich sky and start the confetti-filled revelry. In his 750th game in all competitions for the club, Muller will leave Bayern after 25 years in June. Speaking with Sky Germany , Muller said: “I can’t really work it through in my mind at the moment,” but said he was touched by “75,000 hearts which were beating just a little bit for me”. Kane said he was “proud” to play with Muller, calling the veteran “a legend in football and a legend at this club”. – AFP/Agencies

teammate Eric Dier, who will leave Bayern in the summer. The title win was also Dier’s first of his career. With Spurs through to the Europa League final where they will face Manchester United, Kane wished his former club well, two years after leaving boyhood club Tottenham. “It’s been a tough season but to reach the Europa League final is a great achievement,” Kane said. “It’s no easy feat to beat the teams that they’ve beat, so full credit to them. “I’ll be watching and hoping they can win, and it could be a good month for a lot of Spurs fans, because I know a lot of them have reached out to me and they’re happy to see me lift this title.

league finish with Spurs. The England captain finally tasted team success the previous Sunday, when chasers Bayer Leverkusen drew 2-2 at Freiburg. Kane said the title win was “an incredible feeling… it’s worth the wait”. “It’s been a lot of hard work, a lot of sacrifice in between, for moments like this – to enjoy it with the team, enjoy it with the fans. I’m loving every minute.” The forward said “we’re going to enjoy this for sure, but then hopefully this is just the first of many. “We have a great team, a great coach and yeah, we feel like we’re building, so we’re looking forward to the challenge.” Kane also praised long-time England

ending without a trophy, but they will compete in the Club World Cup this summer. “It’s very important for the club… we were better than Barcelona in the Champions League over the last four years to reach it,” noted Simeone. Lazio snatch draw against Juve MATIAS VECINO snatched a precious 1-1 draw for Lazio against 10-man Juventus with a stoppage-time equaliser in an enthralling battle between top-four rivals. Uruguayan Vecino tapped home from close range after a miraculous Michele Di Gregorio save from Valentin Castellanos to spare Lazio from what would have been a painful defeat. Juventus, who played for over half an hour with 10 men after Pierre Kalulu was sent off for striking out at Lazio striker Castellanos, stay fourth. But Igor Tudor’s team are level on 64 points with Lazio in fifth, with sixth-placed Roma a point behind ahead of their clash at Atalanta on Monday night. Randal Kolo Muani netted Juve’s goal in the 51st minute at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome, his seventh goal in Italy’s top flight since signing on loan from Paris Saint-Germain in January. Juve thought they were set to win when they survived a penalty scare moments before Vecino’s leveller, when Di Gregorio brought down Castellanos who was then ruled by VAR to have been offside. But Vecino stepped up to save a point for Lazio and leave the fight for the final two Champions League spots firmly in the balance.

ALEXANDER SORLOTH hit four goals in the first half-an-hour to power Atletico Madrid to a 4-0 win over Real Sociedad yesterday in La Liga. The Norwegian hitman’s quadruple helped Atletico tighten their grip on third place, while La Real slump to 12th. Sorloth completed a hattrick in the opening 11 minutes, the earliest in La Liga history, beating trebles netted by the 15th minute in 1929 and 1941 by Europa’s Carles Bestit and Valencia’s Mundo, respectively. “It’s a good feeling and I just had one of those days today,” Sorloth told DAZN . “The ball just seemed to drop to my feet, I was ready in the box, everything went in and (there were) also good passes from my team mates, so… amazing.” Last season while playing for Villarreal, Sorloth hit four goals in a 17-minute spell against champions Real Madrid in a thrilling 4-4 draw. The only other players in La Liga history to score four goals on two occasions or more are former Madrid striker Cristiano Ronaldo and ex Barcelona duo Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez. Atletico coach Simeone said his forward had the Midas touch. “Every ball that arrived to him ended up as a goal,” said Simeone. “Beyond his four goals, he’s a very important player, however long he’s playing for – 30 minutes, 45 or 90.” Atletico’s season has been disappointing,
