L'Équipe ↗How it started
Harry Kane began the day showing his Ballon d'Or to Bayern Munich supporters at the Allianz Arena. CNN Brasil reported that the ceremony on October 31 celebrated his victory in the 2026 award before Bayern faced Borussia Dortmund.
It was Kane's first match since winning the prize, according to The42. The occasion brought an individual celebration into one of Bayern's biggest fixtures, with the teams meeting in the eighth round of the Bundesliga.
How it unfolded
The October 31 match followed the pre-match presentation, but the celebrations did not carry through to a Bayern victory. L'Équipe reported that Kane missed a penalty as Dortmund held Bayern at the Allianz Arena.
The missed opportunity came in the second half. According to The42, Kane struck his spot kick against the crossbar.
Dortmund then struck late through Fabio Silva. Sky Sports reported that his equaliser secured a 2-2 draw, punishing Bayern after Kane's penalty miss.
Where it stands
Bayern finished Der Klassiker with a draw rather than the win they wanted. ESPN FC confirmed the 2-2 result at the Allianz Arena, leaving Kane's award presentation as only one part of a frustrating day.
The contrast was sharp: Kane was celebrated before kick-off, then left to rue his missed penalty after Dortmund's late response, as DER SPIEGEL reported.
