Sport: The semi-final match ended 2-2 after Kane scored one of the home team’s two goals from the chalk mark. After the match, the forward revealed what was going on between himself and Bellingham before the penalty.
Kane was getting ready to shoot when Bellingham walked up to him and whispered something in his ear.
– At that moment I did not understand what he said. However, I spoke to him afterwards and he told me that he said “I know you’re going to shoot to the left”, says the Bayern striker.
– He tried to tell the goalkeeper the same thing, he adds.
At the same time, Kane emphasizes several times that he did not catch Bellingham’s words in the lurve lane out on the pitch.
Regardless, the former Tottenham striker sent Real goalkeeper AndriyLunin the wrong way and sent Bayern into a 2-1 lead. Later, Vinicius Junior equalized to make it 2-2, also from the penalty spot.
Kane says he saw that Lunin went a little early on the penalty. This allowed him to send the ball in the opposite direction.
The 30-year-old is yet to win a trophy despite a glittering career. Hope this season is the Champions League.
