Kane scores again but Bayern held by Leverkusen

Football

Bayer Leverkusen scored a stoppage-time penalty through Exequiel Palacios to rescue a 2-2 draw at Bayern Munich on Friday and snap their winning start.

Palacios thundered in his spot kick after Alphonso Davies had brought down Jonas Hofmann. Bayern had taken the lead in the 86th minute through Leon Goretzka, who tapped in after fine early work from substitute Mathys Tel.

Harry Kane had headed in his fourth goal of the season in the seventh minute to put Bayern in front before the visitors levelled with an Alejandro Grimaldo free kick in the 24th.

Leverkusen hit the woodwork and squandered several chances through Victor Boniface before Goretzka scored.

But Davies’ sloppy defending earned them a last-gasp spot kick after a VAR review that Palacios converted to earn a point.

Bayern and Leverkusen are both on 10 points in top spot.
