  • Borussia Dortmund drew 2-2 with Bayern Munich in Der Klassiker
  • Harry Kane hit the crossbar with a second-half penalty while Bayern led 1-0
  • Fabio Silva scored a late equaliser for Dortmund

Borussia Dortmund earned a 2-2 draw with Bayern Munich in Der Klassiker after Fabio Silva scored a late equaliser. Bayern had been ahead 1-0 when Harry Kane stepped up for a second-half penalty, but his effort struck the crossbar.

Kane was taking the field for the first time since claiming the Ballon d'Or on Monday. His miss proved costly, as Bayern could not hold the lead to the final whistle. Silva's goal came late in the match and salvaged a point for the visitors.

Bayern had moved in front before the break, and the penalty was a chance to extend that advantage. Instead, the spot kick rebounded off the bar. Dortmund then pushed forward and found the equaliser through Silva late on.

Der Klassiker is the meeting between the two biggest clubs in German football. The result leaves both sides with a point each from a match that was decided by a single moment at each end of the pitch.

It is not yet clear what the result means for the table. Neither club has said what it plans next, and it is not yet clear how the result will affect Bayern's title push.
