Harry Kane has hit out at the yellow card he received on Saturday, which will force him to miss Bayern Munich\u2019s potential title-clincher against RB Leipzig. Kane was booked late in the first half of Bayern\u2019s 3-0 win over Mainz, a result that brought them within one win of the Bundesliga title. The booking was his fifth of the league season, triggering an automatic suspension for next weekend\u2019s clash in Leipzig. The 31-year-old, still chasing the first major team trophy of his career, was furious after the match. “It’s a crazy, crazy decision.
