DO NOT even think about writing off Harry Kane's chances of winning his first trophy this season.
Kane is still in with a big chance of writing his own fairy tale as his 43rd goal of the campaign kept Bayern Munich in the hunt to reach the Champions League final at Wembley on June 1.
What a story that would be for the England captain to win the biggest club prize in Europe, and his first piece of silverware, at his own national stadium.
It was never going to be easy. The tie is so evenly poised because two-goal Vinicius Junior scored a late penalty to level it up ahead of next week's second leg in the Bernabeu.
But Bayern almost swept away Real Madrid amid the noise of the 75,000 sell-out crowd in the Allianz Arena in a fabulous match-up between two European superpowers.
On this occasion, Kane came out on top against Jude Bellingham in the battle of the England stars.
Bellingham did his best to put Kane off just before he took his 57th-minute penalty but nothing can stop the deadly No.9 when he is in this mood.
