Harry Kane blocked out Jude Bellingham ‘mumbling’ before Bayern Munich penalty against Real Madrid

May 1, 2024

Harry Kane on Jude Bellingham’s antics: “I don’t know what he was saying. I saw him mumbling something. Once I’m in that moment, I’m in my zone, trying to block everyone out. I’m sure he was saying something to try to put me off.”

Harry Kane says he blocked out everything after England team-mate Jude Bellingham appeared to try and put him off ahead of converting a penalty for Bayern Munich in their 2-2 draw with Real Madrid.

England striker Kane put Bayern 2-1 in front from the penalty spot, before a late Vinicius Junior spot-kick earned Real a 2-2 draw in the first leg of their Champions League semi-final in Munich.

On what his international team-mate Bellingham said to him before the penalty, Kane told TNT: “I don’t know what he was saying. I saw him mumbling something.

“Once I’m in that moment, I’m in my zone, trying to block everyone out. I’m sure he was saying something to try to put me off.”
Later in the mixed zone, Kane added: “In the moment, I didn’t know what he said but I spoke to him after and he said: ‘I know you’re going to go left of the keeper’.
“But it was nice for me because I saw the keeper go a little bit early and I put it away. Actually, on the pitch, I didn’t know what he said. I knew he was there but I didn’t know what he said. But I went left anyway.”
Kane’s penalty extended his season tally to 43 goals from as many games in his first season at Munich.
