Harry Kane calls Arsenal “really dangerous”

Harry Kane calls Arsenal “really dangerous” given their threat from set-pieces, plus how well organised they are at both ends of the pitch.

The Bayern Munich attacker was seriously impressed by Mikel Arteta’s team at the Emirates and suggested they will go very deep into the competition.

Speaking after the game, Kane told BeIN SPORTS: “I said in the press conference before, I think they’re a strong team. I think both their attack and defence are really solid.

“Then set pieces as well can be really dangerous, and you add that together with the players and quality they have, and obviously, there’s a reason why they’re top of the Champions League and Premier League tables.

“So as I said, there’s a good chance we’re going to be coming up against these teams in the latter stages of the Champions League, and all we can do is just keep working on what we do. It’s been a great start to the season for us.”

Speaking ahead of the match, Kane praised both Declan Rice and Bukayo Saka, with the duo both impressing against the German giants.

Kane might not have been best pleased, though, with Rice’s challenge on him in the 75th minute.

The Arsenal midfielder produced a clean tackle to win the ball, but it was a rather firm challenge on his England teammate.

The last thing Rice will want to do is injure Kane with the countdown to the 2026 World Cup now on.

The Gunners’ supporters will have loved the incident, especially the passion which the 26-year-old showed after making the tackle.
