MUNICH (AP) — Harry Kane will miss Bayern Munich's game against Borussia Moenchengladbach on Friday with a calf injury in a blow to his hopes of breaking theBundesliga recordfor most goals in a season.
Bayern coach Vincent Kompany said on Thursday the problem wasn't serious but means Kane will play no part in Friday's game, which could see Bayern open up a 14-point lead at the top of the table.
"He got a knock on his calf and hasn't recovered yet," Kompany said. "It's nothing serious for the time being but we'd need maybe another a day for him to be involved. We're pretty relaxed. Of course we would have liked Harry to be involved but these things happen."
