'It annoyed him' - Harry Kane left 'upset' after being hit with one-match ban as Bayern star makes vow to England captain ahead of title decider

Kane was booked in a bewildering series of events against Mainz. After committing a foul, the England captain was shown a yellow card for holding onto the ball, even though he appeared unsure he had done anything wrong. Now, both his manager Vincent Kompany and team-mate Aleksandar Pavlovic have revealed his frustration at missing Bayern's potential title decider. A win over Leipzig will see them crowned Bundesliga champions.

Kane has never won a trophy throughout a lengthy career, and has repeatedly tasted disappointment for both Tottenham Hotspur and England. That drought finally appears set to end, thanks in large part to the striker's contribution of 36 goals in all competitions this term. However, he may not be on the pitch when Bayern confirm their triumph.

Kompany told reporters: "It's not ideal, but we play 34 games in the season. Guys like Musiala, Davies, Upamecano, Ito who are not there, also have to celebrate the title when it's won. It doesn't make a big difference for Harry and doesn't change anything on what he did this season"

Pavlovic added: "He was upset in the dressing room about getting a yellow card for something like that. It annoyed him, but we'll do everything for him to secure the title in Leipzig without him."

Bayern have just three Bundesliga games left, against Leipzig, Borussia Monchengladbach and Hoffenheim. They are almost certain to win the title, given their eight-point lead over Bayer Leverkusen.
