Kane misses first Bundesliga spot-kick in 25 attempts in win
Slavia-Sparta derby abandoned after pitch invasion
Harry Kane missed a penalty as Bayern Munich failed to hit top form but the Bundesliga champions still edged struggling Wolfsburg 1-0 to bounce back after their midweek Champions League semi-final exit to Paris Saint-Germain.
Bayern, who won with a Michael Olise goal, had suffered a 6-5 aggregate loss to PSG after their 1-1 draw in Munich on Wednesday, narrowly missing out on what would have been their first Champions League final in six years. The frustration was evident at the start as the Bavarian side, with six changes in the lineup, lacked their usual attacking spark despite having Kane, the top scorer, in the starting XI.
Kane then squandered a 36th-minute penalty, slipping slightly before missing the target, for his first missed Bundesliga spot-kick after 24 successful ones. The visitors needed more than one half to find their footing and they finally broke the deadlock with Olise’s superbly curled shot into the top corner in the 56th.
