However Harry Kane imagined preparing for his first “Klassiker” for Bayern Munich against Borussia Dortmund, it probably didn't involve losing to a third-division team.
The England captain watched on as an unused substitute as Bayern was knocked out of the German Cup 2-1 by Saarbruecken on Wednesday in one of the competition's biggest ever upsets. Bayern now has to turn it around to play Dortmund on Saturday.
It wasn't just an embarrassing loss that knocked Bayern out of contention for a trophy. Matthijs de Ligt suffered a partial knee ligament tear in the game, leaving the team with a gap in defense, and Thomas Müller indicated a possible rift in the squad when he publicly criticized teammates for disrespecting the fans.
