Kane misses, Silva punishes Bayern

Bayern Munich went into this one as the clear measuring stick in German football, top of the Bundesliga table under Vincent Kompany on the back of a strong start to the season. A home win over Dortmund would have made the gap at the top look even more settled than it already does. Instead they walked away with a 2-2 draw and a missed penalty to stew on.

Kane's spot-kick, according to Sky Sports, was the moment that could have turned the contest decisively Bayern's way. It didn't go in, and that single miss left the door open for Dortmund to do what Dortmund still occasionally do to Bayern: hang around, absorb pressure, and strike when the home side least expects it.

Silva's late sting

Fabio Silva was the one who made Bayern pay. His equaliser arrived late, according to Sky Sports, and it was enough to snatch a draw for Dortmund in a fixture where anything less than full points at home usually gets picked apart in Munich. For a Bayern side that had built a season-long case for being hard to live with domestically, conceding a share of the spoils to their oldest rivals is the kind of result that gets replayed on a loop.

Der Klassiker fallout

Two points dropped at home to Dortmund won't derail Bayern's title course on its own. Kompany's side are still top of the table. But Der Klassiker exists precisely to punish moments like Kane's miss, and Dortmund will take the psychological boost of walking out of Munich level after Silva's intervention.

For Kane personally, the miss sits oddly against a season in which he's been relentless in front of goal. It won't define his campaign. It will just be the one that got away on the day everyone was watching.
