Why did Harry Kane miss his penalty? "Dirty play" exposed

Why did Harry Kane miss his penalty?

Bayern Munich striker Harry Kane has ended his remarkable penalty streak in the Bundesliga. Taking a spot-kick against Wolfsburg, the English forward sent the ball well wide of the goal. This incident sparked intense discussion among fans and experts. According to Goal.com, reports.

Video analysis revealed that Wolfsburg defender Jeanuel Belocian intentionally scuffed the turf around the penalty spot while the referee was distracted. This "dirty play" tactic caused Kane's standing foot to slip during his strike, leading to the inaccurate shot.

This setback ended Harry Kane's streak of 24 consecutive successful penalties in the Bundesliga. Having converted 37 out of 40 penalties for Bayern, he remains one of the world's best penalty takers with a 92.5% success rate.

Although this was one of the most critical moments of the match, Harry Kane is clearly leading the Bundesliga top scorer race this season with 33 goals, while his closest pursuer, Deniz Undav, has only 19.
