Bayern Munich honors Kane's Ballon d'Or with modest celebration before German Cup match

rmcsport.bfmtv.com (French) —

Bayern Munich honored Harry Kane with his Ballon d'Or before Wednesday's German Cup match, though the striker celebrated modestly without displaying the trophy to fans. Kane, starting as a substitute against Magdeburg, received a guard of honor from teammates and applause at Allianz Arena while wearing a tracksuit. He later thanked supporters in a video, calling the award "our trophy" belonging to the entire club. The Englishman became the first from his country to win the award since Michael Owen in 2001, beating Kylian Mbappé and Lamine Yamal. A larger celebration may occur Saturday against Borussia Dortmund.
