Watch: Harry Kane looks to deliberately elbow Arsenal player and gets away with it

During Bayern Munich’s intense clash against Arsenal, Harry Kane managed to evade a potential red card despite delivering a vicious elbow to Gabriel Magalhaes’ face.

The England captain had been making a significant impact, securing Bayern’s lead with a penalty, after former Gunners academy product Serge Gnabry equalised for the German giants.

Despite initially falling behind due to Bukayo Saka’s precise shot, Kane’s goal had propelled Bayern to a 2-1 advantage in the Champions League quarter-final. As the match progressed, tension escalated, and Kane’s elbow incident with Gabriel heightened the stakes.

Although fortunate to only receive a yellow card, Bayern Munich undoubtedly breathed a sigh of relief, recognising the potential ramifications had Kane been sent off in the crucial second half.
