WHAT HAPPENED?
Kane received the knock to his cheek just before half-time, but did play on for the rest of Bayern's 0-0 draw against Bundesliga title rivals. He was absent from preparations for tomorrow night's Champions League play-off second leg with Celtic, but could still be fit to play.

WHAT KOMPANY SAID
Bayern boss Vincent Kompany said of Kane's absence from training: "It's nothing bad. We don't have much time overall and sometimes you just need that extra day. We'll see how he feels tomorrow. But I assume it's nothing bad."

WHAT NEXT FOR BAYERN AND KANE?
Bayern lead their Champions League tie with Celtic 2-1 after winning in Glasgow last week and are hot favourites to progress from the tie and into the last 16 of the competition. They also lead Leverkusen by eight points at the top of the Bundesliga, as Kane aims to seal the first major silverware of his career.
