Harry Kane missed a penalty in Bayern Munich's 2-2 draw against Borussia Dortmund, a match in which Kane also provided a great assist and had another shot ricochet off the crossbar. The miss was notable given Kane's strong penalty record. Joshua Kimmich was surprised by the miss, according to Bavarian Football Works.
Kane has scored 113 penalties and missed just 16 in his career, making the miss against Dortmund ironic, especially as he had just been awarded the Ballon d'Or. Kimmich acknowledged Kane's high conversion rate and expected him to score future penalties.
Kimmich was asked to compare his surprise at Kane's penalty miss to Dortmund's defensive strategy, and he stated that Kane missing the penalty surprised him more. Kimmich's response was captured by @iMiaSanMia.

Source context
Harry Kane’s penalty miss in Der Klassiker cost Bayern Munich two points as the Bavarians had to settle for a 2-2 draw against Borussia Dortmund. The midfielder was asked whether Kane’s miss from the penalty spot surprised him more than Dortmund playing with a four-man defensive formation. “I’d say Harry missing the penalty. We were just talking about that. His conversion rate is incredible. At some point, he’s bound to miss one. I’m sure there will be more important penalties coming up, and he‘ll score them again,” answered Kimmich (as captured by @iMiaSanMia).
