Soccer Kane's perfect Bayern penalty record ends but striker scores last gasp winner

Harry Kane missed his first penalty for Bayern Munich in a competitive match but scored a stoppage-time winner as the Bavarians struggled to beat third-tier Wehen Wiesbaden 3-2 in the German Cup on Wednesday after squandering a two-goal lead, Reuters reported.

Kane, who had not missed any of his previous 31 penalties in competitive matches for clubs and country since the 2022 World Cup, had also never missed from the spot in 22 attempts since joining Bayern Munich two years ago.

But the England captain, who had scored a penalty in the 16th minute to put them in front, was at the far post deep in stoppage time to nod in for his sixth goal in three matches this season and send Bayern through.

Kane, the first player to be crowned top scorer in both his first two seasons in the Bundesliga, had demanded a penalty minutes earlier for a Wiesbaden hand ball but, without the use of VAR in the Cup competition, there was no review, according to Reuters.
