In the seventh final of his career, Harry Kane tries to end the joke and win his first professional title at the European Championship
The afternoon (Brasília time) of this Sunday, the 14th, could mark the end of one of the most famous taboos in world football today: the titles of Harry Kane. The 30-year-old striker has never lifted a trophy in his career, and he reaches yet another European Championship final with England to break the fast.
This is the seventh decision for the English star since he started playing professional football. Previously, he suffered three defeats when he was still playing for Tottenhamone this season already Bayern Munchenand the other was exactly the decision of the last Euro, lost on penalties to Italy.
Love Harry Kane
No real ego, a great leader and always fronts up to the media despite 10+ years of boring, tired jokes about his minor speech impediment which would be enough to silence lesser men
Proper captain, proper player

After his transfer to Germany, in fact, everything indicated that the taboo would soon end, at least Bayern have been dominant for over a decade in the national championships, but that was not what happened. The sequence of 11 league titles was ended, in addition to having lost the Cup to a third division team and the Super Cup to RB Leipzig.
In the Champions League, the team was qualifying for the final until the 88th minute of the game, winning the Real Madrid by 1 to 0, until Joselu scored twice and eliminated the Bavarians from the competition. This was the first season in 12 years that the club finished without winning a tournament.
Now, the expectation is for the first victory in a decisive game this Sunday, the 14th, when England will face Spainfor the European Championship. The victory could also end the English team’s 58-year drought without a title. The match is scheduled to start at 4 pm (Brasília time).
