Bayern scrape win despite Kane penalty miss after Champions League exit

WOLFSBURG, Germany, May 9 : Bayern Munich’s Harry Kane missed a penalty as the Bundesliga champions failed to hit top form but still edged strugglers VfL Wolfsburg 1-0 on Saturday with a Michael Olise goal after their midweek Champions League semi-final exit to Paris St Germain. Bayern suffered a 6-5 aggregate loss to holders Paris St Germain after their 1-1 draw in Munich on Wednesday, narrowly missing out on what would have been their first Champions League final in six years after they beat PSG in the 2020 showpiece. The frustration was evident at the start on Saturday as the Bavarians, with six changes, lacked their usual attacking spark despite having top scorer Kane in the starting 11. Kane then squandered a 36th minute penalty, slipping slightly before missing the target, for his first missed Bundesliga spot kick after 24 successful ones. Video replays later showed a Wolfsburg player repeatedly stepping on the penalty spot before Kane took his spot kick. Coach Vincent Kompany said had that been the case on Wednesday, Bayern’s players would have been …

Four changes to the City side that beat Wolves at the weekend. No shock to see Erling Haaland, but fact Omar Marmoush is in may raise a few eyebrows with Pep Guardiola looking likely to play 4-4-2. Rayan Ait-Nouri starts, with Nathan Ake and Jeremy Doku also returning. Marc Guehi and Antoine Semenyo are cup-tied so are not involved, Rodri is suspended after his red card at Bodo/Glimt, while Tijjani Reijnders drops to the bench. MAN CITY XI TO FACE GALATASARY: Donnarumma, Nunes, Khusanov, Ake, Ait-Nouri, Silva, O’Reilly, Marmoush, Cherki, Doku, Haaland There are two well-known faces in the Galatasaray side – well-known in the very specific sense of Manchester City, rather than simply Premier League. Former City winger Leroy Sane comes into the side, while City’s former midfielder Ilkay Gundogan captains the Turkish giants. Other familiar faces include former Fulham man Mario Lemina and ex-Tottenham defender Davinson Sanchez. GALATASARY XI TO FACE MAN CITY: Cakir, Sallai, Sanchez, Bardakci, Jakob, Gundogan, Lemina, Sane, Sara, Yilmaz, Osimhen. Source link

Department calls for tech companies to take part in trials to feed it data to inform policy Department calls for tech companies to take part in trials to feed it data to inform policy More from this theme Recent articles The government wants school management information systems (MIS) providers to help it “harness the potential” of the real-time data they collect to inform policy decisions. The Department for Education is calling on the tech companies to take part in a series of trials to feed up-to-date information from schools straight to officials. Ministers believe the scheme could help heads benchmark their schools with others across the country and contribute to government decision-making much quicker. Nick Finnemore, an educational technology consultant, believes the move could also improve the “outdated” way “statutory returns are currently handled”. “In a modern data environment, the government should be able to access the statutory data it needs, when it needs it, rather than relying on periodic, manual submissions. “[The pilot’s] success will depend entirely on getting all MIS suppliers on board.” …
