Harry Kane’s post-match interview awkwardly hijacked on live TV after Arsenal’s 2-2 draw with Bayern Munich
HARRY KANE’S post-match interview was hijacked by Arsenal fans after the Gunners’ 2-2 draw with Bayern Munich.
The former Tottenham star, 30, returned to North London to haunt Arsenal, netting from the penalty spot during the first half.

After the game, Kane stopped to chat to TNT Sports pitchside.
Bizarrely, dozens of Arsenal fans stayed in their seats well after the final whistle.
Many of those who stayed opted to heckle their former foe while he spoke to Laura Woods, Rio Ferdinand and Martin Keown.
Arsenal fans performed their “What do you think of Tottenham? chant” as Kane spoke.
Woods jokingly asked the striker: “Harry, have you missed this lot?”
To which he replied: “I think they have a soft respect for me.”
Ferdinand, 45, quipped: “They love him here don’t they.”
Incredibly, tonight’s penalty was Kane’s 15th goal against Arsenal.
He has taken his Premier League goalscoring prowess to Germany, netting 32 goals in 28 Bundesliga appearances this season.
It was Bukayo Saka who got tonight’s scoring underway, firing past Manuel Neuer in the 12th minute.
Arsenal old boy Serge Gnabry levelled just six minutes later, before Kane’s penalty gave Bayern the lead just after the half hour.
Substitute Leandro Trossard went on to equalise in the 76th minute to grab his side a 2-2 draw.
The result could have been very different, however, but for two big penalty decisions.
Bayern were blatantly denied a spot kick, with boss Thomas Tuchel claiming that referee Glenn Nyberg admitted to seeing Gabriel deliberately handball.
Arsenal then felt they should have had a spot kick of their own, when Saka collided with Manuel Neuer in the last minute.
The two sides will reconvene in Germany next Wednesday with a place in the last four up for grabs.
Why would he pick it up? It HAS to be a penalty, says Halsey
By Mark Halsey
Arsenal could have absolutely no complaints if a penalty was awarded to Bayern Munich.
The referee signalled for David Raya to take the goal kick.
He did… and Gabriel picked the ball up. Why would he do that? The whistle had been blown.
The only person who has made a mistake is Gabriel. Why would he pick the ball up?
Once the referee has blown his whistle and Gabriel has picked it up, he has to give a penalty.
