Incredible run ends: Kane misses his first penalty for Bayern | OneFootball

Harry Kane missed his first penalty in a competitive match for FC Bayern in the first round of the DFB-Pokal against SV Wehen Wiesbaden – and yet still decided the match.

With the score at 2-2, the English superstar stepped up to the spot in the 76th minute, but Wiesbaden goalkeeper Florian Stritzel guessed the right way and made the save. This brought an end to Kane’s impressive streak of 31 consecutive converted penalties in competitive matches.

Earlier, the 32-year-old had confidently scored from the spot. In the first half, he converted his penalty with ease, putting the record champions on course. Up until that evening, Kane had scored all his penalties in competitive matches for Bayern, having only missed once before in a pre-season match against Tottenham Hotspur.

Despite his missed penalty, Kane remained dangerous until the final whistle – and ultimately became the match winner. In stoppage time, the striker scored to make it 3-2, securing Bayern’s place in the second round of the cup.

Even though Kane faltered from the spot, he once again showed his importance for FC Bayern. The star striker first converted confidently, later missed – and in the end still decided the match in favor of the record champions.
