Thomas Tuchel’s side struck first after Modric left a high foot on Noni Madueke, giving the referee no choice but to point to the spot.
Kane stepped up and his first effort was well saved by Dominik Livakovic, but with the ‘keeper off his line when the ball was struck, it had to be retaken.
The England captain went the same way with his second spot-kick only this time it ended up in the back of the net.
