Finally, the moment is almost here! Harry Kane is on the verge of winning his first-ever trophy in his career! While it might seem surprising, this is the reality. Kane is now just two matches away from securing his first-ever title. If Bayern Munich wins the next two games in the Bundesliga, they will be crowned champions, and that will mark Kane’s first trophy in his professional career.
Liverpool, too, is on the brink of a title. For them, it’s not two games but just one win to claim the championship. However, unlike the Bundesliga and Premier League, the battles in Serie A and La Liga aren’t as straightforward. Both leagues have tightly contested title races, and the battles for the crowns might stretch to the final day.
Kane’s First Trophy Wait
Kane’s hopes of winning a trophy were likely abandoned even by his most devoted fans. Despite establishing himself as one of the world’s best strikers during his 14 years at Tottenham, he had never won a title. Even with England, Kane played in two consecutive Euro finals but remained trophyless. Even after his move to Bayern Munich, his first season there passed without a trophy. However, it seems like that streak might finally be coming to an end.
Kane now stands just two matches away from his first-ever trophy. After Bayern Munich’s 4-0 victory over Hoffenheim, they are on 72 points after 30 matches. In contrast, Bayer Leverkusen, who drew 1-1 with St. Pauli, has 64 points from 30 matches. There are only four games left in the Bundesliga, and Bayern can secure the title by winning their next two games. If Leverkusen drops points, Bayern could clinch the title even earlier.
Inter and Napoli in a Tight Title Race
The most competitive title race in Europe right now is in Italy. Inter Milan and Napoli are both in contention, with equal chances of winning the title. After defeating Monza, Napoli reached 71 points from 33 matches. Inter had the chance to surpass Napoli, but they lost 1-0 to Bologna, leaving both teams tied on 71 points. The final five matches will determine the Serie A champion, with Inter facing Roma and Lazio, and Napoli taking on Torino and Genoa.
Liverpool’s Title Celebration at Anfield
Liverpool had a chance to win the title on Sunday night. If Arsenal had lost to Ipswich Town, Liverpool could have been crowned champions. However, Arsenal defeated the relegation-threatened Ipswich 4-0, so now Liverpool must wait until they play Leicester City. Liverpool’s title hopes could be realized this Sunday when they play Tottenham at Anfield. If they win, they will be champions without needing any other results. However, Liverpool can also become champions without playing, provided Arsenal drops points against Crystal Palace on Wednesday. Currently, Liverpool has 79 points from 33 matches, while Arsenal is on 66.
El Clásico to Decide La Liga
In La Liga, both Barcelona and Real Madrid secured important victories in their last matches. After a 4-3 win over Celta Vigo, Barcelona’s points stand at 73 from 32 matches. Real Madrid, who defeated Athletic Bilbao, now have 69 points from 32 matches. Both teams have six matches left. Real Madrid needs to make up a four-point deficit over the next six matches to win the title. The upcoming El Clásico between Real Madrid and Barcelona on May 11 could potentially decide the La Liga champion. The title race in Spain may very well come down to the final day, but regardless of the outcome, La Liga is set to deliver plenty of excitement in the coming weeks.
