Harry Kane goes goalless in first match since Ballon d'Or triumph

Harry Kane goes goalless in first match since Ballon d'Or triumph

Harry Kane featured in his first match since being awarded the Ballon d'Or but was unable to find the back of the net. The England captain and Bayern Munich striker played the full game but saw his goalless streak extend despite creating several chances for his teammates.

The 31-year-old forward, who claimed football's most prestigious individual prize earlier this month, showed his usual all-round play with key passes and movement but lacked the finishing touch that has defined his career.

Kane's Ballon d'Or victory made him the first English player to win the award since Michael Owen in 2001. His club form for Bayern Munich has been prolific since his 2023 transfer from Tottenham Hotspur.
