In the ever-evolving game of football, where new names like Kylian Mbappé, Erling Haaland, Viktor Gyökeres, Lautaro Martinez, and so many more. However, one name stands as a paragon of modern striking excellence, and it’s none other than Bayern Munich’s Number 9, Harry Kane.
Over the years, he has proved to be one of the most consistent players to dismantle the opponent’s backline with his remarkable vision and perfect finishing. The striker oozes class on the pitch, where he not only showcases his traditional prowess to manifest chances into goals. However, he also showcases traits of a modern forward, whose off-the-ball movement can help his teammates deliver him the perfect ball to create a bewitching team play.
Kane’s brilliance as a striker was showcased in his recent match, where he bagged himself a hattrick against Augsburg. What made the achievement much more unique was how he created aBlue Lock-esquegoal, taking his inspiration from one of the greatest egoists of the show, Nagi Seishiro.
Harry Kane’s“Phenomenal”Goal Against Augsburg Reminds Fans of Seishiro Nagi
Muneyuki Kaneshiro’sBlue Lockhas been making waves, where the show’sout-of-the-box idea, following the sport, has made it so uniquely appealing to the masses. The show flaunts a long list of ballers who can excel on the field, where they will create magic with a ball at their feet.
Despite so many names, Seishiro Nagi’s impeccable dribbling skills showcased his big ego, making him look like a prodigy of the game. This notion was strongly engrained, especially after his jaw-dropping volley against U-20 Japan in the 7th episode of the series titled“Itoshi Sae.”However, his one goal has been so iconic that it made Harry Kane recreate the goal in his own iconic manner.

In Season 1, heflaunted his insane ball control and deadly finish, perfectly executing a special training move with the help of Reo Mikage against Isagi Yoichi’s Team Z. Likewise, Harry Kane also displayed the same ego in the dying minutes of the game, where he had a brace for himself with two penalties. However, in the 90+5 minutes, he got a pinpoint cross from his Bayern Munich teammate, Leon Goretzka.
Just like Nagi, he showcased his dazzling ball control, lifting the ball just enough in the air toscore a headerand complete his hattrick. Recently, an influencer (@peacehammertitan) pointed out,“Harry Kane’s been watching Blue Lock.”He explained both players’ movements were strikingly similar, where he played a side-by-side video between the two clips.

The influencer pointed out that the only point of difference was how Nagi chose to hit a volley, while the No. 9 striker chose to go for a header. This made the otakus go crazy and leave their opinion on the Bavarian Giants’ forward.

There’s no denying that the goal showcased his technical brilliance and unwavering determination to play at the highest level, even at the age of 31, to win his first official trophy with the Bavarian Giants.
The global fan base of Kaneshiro-Sensei’s magnum opus was taken aback, leaving their positive take on the post, calling him the“best 9 in the world right now.”The fans commented,
@al_maaz18 commented,“Bro became the logo of bundesliga”
@asanye commented, “Bro Harry Kane is currently the best 9 in the world right now.”
@omotosorereloluwa commented,“Watched it live. I was in shock for a minute. Straight out of an anime”
@hrichards commented,“Kane touch and finish was world class”
@steve.yukihira commented,“Seishiro kane”
@jakkas_jay commented,“Harry Kanes goal was more dis-respectful. What A Goal”
The Otaku community was at a loss for words, as they were reminded ofErling Haaland’s heel kickin the UEFA Champions League. While the show has been criticized for the drop in animation quality, anime fans can’t deny that the influence of the show is just unreal.
