Mane punches Sane in bust-up after Bayern Munich’s defeat to Man City

Bayern Munich forward, Sadio Mane, punched his team-mate, Leroy Sane, in the face after Tuesday’s Champions League defeat at Manchester City.

Sane’s lip was seen bleeding after the altercation as the two players were separated by their fellow team-mates in the dressing room.

The duo were seen on the pitch arguing in the latter stages of the match on Tuesday night, where City beat the German champions 3-0 at Etihad Stadium in the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final first leg.

According to Sky Sports, after landing back in Munich, Mane, who was a substitute for the tie, was picked up privately from the airport while Sane, a former City player, took the team bus.

Bayern Munich have not commented on the incident.

Rodri’s curling shot from distance in the first half gave Pep Guardiola’s side the lead against the German champions before Bernardo Silva headed in a second after the interval and Erling Haaland completed the scoring as City put one foot in the semi-finals of the Champions League.

Speaking after the game, Bayern Munich manager, Thomas Tuchel, who was taking charge of just his third game after replacing Julian Nagelsmann, said his side were unlucky to lose the game.

“This does not feel like a 3-0 but it is a 3-0 and it is a huge, huge task now to turn this around. We are realistic but we will not give up.

“It will not be over until we are in the shower,” Tuchel said.
