Chris Sutton says he was \u2018surprised\u2019 by Jude Bellingham\u2019s attempts to put Harry Kane off his penalty in Bayern Munich\u2019s 2-2 draw with Real Madrid and believes the young midfielder showed a \u2018lack of respect\u2019.<\/p>\n

In Tuesday\u2019s pulsating Champions League semi-final first leg in Munich, Kane was given the chance to put Bayern in front after Jamal Musiala was clumsily tripped by Lucas Vazquez inside the box on the hour mark.<\/p>\n

The spot-kick was awarded just four minutes after Leroy Sane had cancelled out Vinicius Junior\u2019s opener and Kane held his nerve with an emphatic strike to Andriy Lunin\u2019s left-hand side to take the roof off the Allianz Arena.<\/p>\n

In the moments leading up to the penalty, Bellingham tried \u2013 and failed \u2013 to distract Kane with mind games, telling the seemingly unfazed England captain which way he was going to put his strike.<\/p>\n

Referee Clement Turpin even had to push Bellingham away from Kane before the Bayern attacker added a 43rd goal to his tally in what has been a phenomenal debut season in Germany.<\/p>\n

\u2018In the moment I didn\u2019t know what he said. I spoke to him afterwards and he said he told me, \u201cI know you\u2019re going to go left\u201d, he was trying to tell the \u2018keeper,\u2019 Kane revealed shortly after Vinicius Junior scored a penalty of his own to level the tie.<\/p>\n

\u2018On the pitch I didn\u2019t know [what he said]. I knew he was there, but I just kind of didn\u2019t know what he said.<\/p>\n

\u2018I saw the \u2018keeper go a bit early and I was able to put it away. Obviously the penalty was nice for me.\u2019<\/p>\n

While Kane appeared to play down the significance of the incident, Sutton has criticised Bellingham\u2019s behaviour, speculating that the England skipper will have been less than impressed with his international colleague ahead of this summer\u2019s European Championships.<\/p>\n

\u2018I was surprised,\u2019 the ex-England, Celtic and Blackburn forward said on Mail Sport\u2019s It\u2019s All Kicking Off podcast.<\/p>\n

\u2018Whether you like it or I like it, it doesn\u2019t matter. Did Harry Kane like it? Does Harry Kane like it 24 hours on? I think he would feel there\u2019s a bit of a lack of respect there. <\/p>\n

\u2018I really, really do. They\u2019re off to the Euros together.\u2019<\/p>\n

According to Sutton, Bellingham risks fans accusing him of \u2018getting a bit above his station\u2019 with such behaviour.<\/p>\n

\u2018There\u2019s a big competition, a big moment,\u2019 he added. <\/p>\n

\u2018You can understand the desperation for Bellingham, for Real Madrid to go through. But I thought it was a strange move. <\/p>\n

\u2018He\u2019s had a brilliant start to his career, exceptional at Dortmund.\u00a0He\u2019s\u00a0gone to Madrid but maybe people are viewing him as someone who may be getting a bit above his station when he does stuff like that.\u2019<\/p>\n

Bellingham was substituted for Luka Modric with 15 minutes remaining in Munich and Carlo Ancelotti revealed the midfielder had been struggling with cramp in his post-match press conference.<\/p>\n

However, the former Birmingham and Borussia Dortmund sensation is expected to return to full fitness in time for the semi-final second leg at the Bernabeu next Wednesday night.<\/p>\n

\u2018He is going to recover to full fitness,\u2019 Ancelotti told reporters.<\/p>\n

\u2018He has had an injury that has affected him. He will be back very soon and by Wednesday he will be 100 per cent.\u2019<\/p>\n
