Bayern sweating: Kane gives update after being subbed off in Frankfurt | OneFootball

FC Bayern confidently won the Bundesliga top match at Eintracht Frankfurt 3-0 – but the victory was briefly overshadowed by a moment of shock involving Harry Kane. The Englishman, who scored again and confirmed his outstanding early-season form, had to be substituted late in the game due to a knock.

With his goal to make it 2-0, Kane once again made history: eleven goals in six Bundesliga matches – no player in Germany has ever achieved that before him. However, the celebration was short-lived, as in the 82nd minute the striker remained on the ground after a heavy collision with SGE keeper Kaua Santos.

After a through ball, Kane ran free towards goal, Santos arrived late and clearly caught the 32-year-old on the ankle. It was actually a clear penalty situation – but referee Daniel Siebert blew the whistle for a narrow offside. While the Frankfurt players breathed a sigh of relief, Bayern fans held their breath: Kane stayed down, grimaced in pain, and had to be treated for several minutes.

Although the striker returned to the field shortly afterwards, coach Vincent Kompany acted cautiously and took him off in the 85th minute. Nicolas Jackson came on for Kane.

Kane gives the all-clear – No problem for the national team

After the final whistle, the superstar himself gave the all-clear. Speaking to Sky, Kane said: “I’m fine. It was a contact with the bone. I had the same thing a few weeks ago, today it was the same spot. In a few days it will be okay again.”

His trip to the English national team is also not in doubt: “I’ll be there on Monday.”

So Bayern and their fans can breathe a sigh of relief: Kane’s ankle injury appears to be minor. The striker remains the heart of Munich’s attack – and wants to continue his impressive run soon.
