Thomas Tuchel sends Harry Kane warning to Lazio ahead of Bayern Munich's crunch Champions League last 16 second leg

With their backs against the wall, as they take on Lazio in the second leg of their last 16 clash, Tuchel has offered insight into how he plans on getting the best out of his super striker. The club has been suffering through a low point in their season as they have only managed one win in their last five matches.

When asked how he plans to motivate Kane, Tuchel told reporters: "It's not necessary to give him additional motivation. There's no doubt about how he behaves. He has a big impact on every team, and on every player. He's not very outspoken, and not a loudspeaker, but the way he does things is very focused and always has an impact on the team. It's a pleasure to have him on the team, and a gift to be his coach. He'll perform tomorrow. We can rely on him 100%."

Kane had a superb start to life in Germany as he equalled and broke several goalscoring records, however, since the resumption of the league after the winter break, the England captain's goal-scoring and creating output has taken a severe hit. He has only managed to score six goals since January after having scored 22 goals in the first 16 games of the season.

Kane will lead the line yet again for the Bavarian side as they will take on Lazio on Tuesday, March 5 at Allianz Arena. Bayern will look to come back from the one-goal deficit that they picked up in the first leg.
