SADIO MANE PUNCHED LEROY SANE’S FACE IN BUST-UP AFTER BAYERN’S DEFEAT TO MAN CITY
Bayern Munich forward Sadio Mane punched team-mate Leroy Sane in the face inside the dressing room after an altercation following defeat by Manchester City.
The Bundesliga champions face an uphill task to overturn a three-goal deficit in the Champions League quarter-final and the wingers came to blows at full time.
Sane and Mane were seen confronting each other as they strolled off the pitch at the Etihad Stadium and the row boiled over when they went down the tunnel.
Mane was left disgruntled by the way in which Sane had addressed him during the argument and is believed to have punched the former City player in the face.
Sane – who had been Bayern’s biggest threat on the night – was left with a bloodied lip before they were dragged away from each other.
Mane, who came off the bench, was picked up privately from the airport after landing back in Munich, while Sane took the team bus.
Bayern Munich have not commented on the incident.
