Harry Kane has been criticised by the German media for the second time in a week after struggling in Bayern Munich's Champions League defeat to Lazio.
The England international blazed an early effort over the bar before becoming anonymous as his side were rocked in Italy, with their hopes of winning European football's top-tier club competition now hanging in the balance.
Lazio secured victory after a penalty from Ciro Immobile, with the Italy international converting from 12 yards after a foul from Dayot Upamecano.
Kane was on the fringes of the action throughout, with the forward failing to assert himself.

And BILD were critical of the 30-year-old after the fixture, giving him the lowest possible grade in their player ratings - just days after they'd slaughtered the veteran for his poor showing in a 3-0 defeat to Bayer Leverkusen.
The German newspaper rate players between 1 and 6, with 1 being their best and 6 being their worst.
Kane was given a 6 and, describing his performance, they wrote: "Missed a mega chance after seven minutes, but after that he couldn't connect with Bayern's attacking attempts at all.
"Totally signed off in the second half."
Upamecano was also given the same rating, with the France international dismissed and now suspended for the second leg in Bavaria.
Thomas Tuchel received a rating of 5, along with players Leon Goretzka and Leroy Sane.
The newspapers gave 4s to Mattijs de Ligt, Thomas Muller, Joshua Kimmich, Raphael Guerreiro, Kim Min-Jae and Noussair Mazraoui secured 4s.
And BILD gave Manuel Neuer and Jamal Musiala 3s, too.
Kane fronted up to TNT Sports after Bayern's hopes of winning the Champions League this year were dealt a huge blow.
And the England skipper admitted Bayern had to improve if they were to make their season a success.
"Really tough week. In the first half, we started well and had clear chances, one for myself. In these games, they're big moments," confessed the 30-year-old.
"The second half was disappointing. We came out with less energy and less confidence.
"We got punished. Once you go down to 10 men it's always difficult.
"We have to find it among ourselves. We're still in the race for the Bundesliga and still in this tie. We have to keep fighting.
"We're in a difficult spell. We have to fight. We have to turn it around. We have big games and big things to fight for.

"We're not out of it, we will never give up. We just need to turn it around. One game or spark can turn it around."
Manager Tuchel added: "We're frustrated and angry about the defeat.
"I think we lost the game, I'm not sure Lazio won it.
"We did everything we could to fall behind, making errors and losing confidence.
"(There was) no need for Upamecano to go in like that. It's not wild or intentional - but just block the shot."
