Sadio Mane 'PUNCHED' Leroy Sane after Bayern Munich's Champions League collapse against Manchester City

Sadio Mane allegedly PUNCHED Bayern Munich teammate Leroy Sane after their 3-0 defeat to Manchester City, according to multiple reports.

The German champions are on the brink of exiting the Champions League after their heavy quarter-final first leg defeat at the Etihad on Tuesday night. Rodri’s sensational opener set Pep Guardiola’s men on their way before doubled the advantage with 20 minutes to go. Erling Haaland added a third to give City a commanding lead heading to Bavaria next week.

Thomas Tuchel was pragmatic afterwards, insisting he is happy with how his team played in general, but they were brutally punished for the mistakes they made against a top class side. But his players were seemingly less pleased, with reports emerging that mane landed one on former City player Sane after the match. The pair were spotted arguing on the pitch as Bayern’s Champions League dreams went up in smoke. And that apparently continued in the dressing room, where things got physical after Mane struck out at the German international.
