  WHAT HAPPENED?

  After the England captain made history for scoring the most goals in a debut Bundesliga season, the striker had to be helped from the pitch with Bayern 4-1 up against Darmstadt after crashing into the frame of the goal. The German giants went onto win the game 5-2 and after the match, manager Thomas Tuchel provided an update on Kane's condition.

  WHAT THOMAS TUCHEL SAID

  After the match, the Bayern manager told reporters: "He [Kane] twisted his ankle in the goal net. He has now completely cooled it with ice. We don't have a diagnosis yet. We have to wait and see and hope that it remains a shock moment."

  Bayern Sporting Director Christoph Freund added: "We hope it’s not so bad. He was subbed off as a precaution. He won’t take any risks with the national team."

• THE BIG PICTURE

  Bayern have had an underwhelming season by their lofty standards and could fail to pick up a trophy for the first time since the 2011/12 campaign. If Kane, who has arguably been their best player this season, is out for any length of time, that is a huge blow in the Bavarians' bid to win some silverware this term.
