"Kane also set a new record - he became the first ever player in the Bundesliga to score his first seventeen penalties. So, it is only natural that some people might be curious as to how he makes penalties seem so easy. "It's not easy. People think it's easy once the ball is in the back of the net. But I practice a lot and always try to improve my routine and technique," Kane said after the game."
""Whenever the ball is in the box I back myself to score, whether it's a penalty or not." Indeed, penalties are tougher than they look, especially the way Kane takes them. To arrow the ball into the corner beyond the goalkeeper's reach takes an immense amount of finesse and precision, and that's without the massive pressure resting on the taker's shoulders."
Harry Kane scored a hat-trick, including two penalties, as Bayern Munich beat TSG Hoffenheim 4-1. Kane became the first player in Bundesliga history to score his first seventeen penalties.
