The English marksman left the field shortly after Jamie Gittens had opened the scoring for the hosts, with Bayern managing to rescue a point late on without Kane through Jamal Musiala.
The length of Kane's absence is as yet unknown, with the record champions announcing their leading scorer will be sidelined, "for the time being" with a "minor muscle strain in his right hamstring." The 31-year-old leads the Bundesliga scoring charts with a stunning 14 goals in 12 games plus five assists.
