Man Utd and Bayern players brawl after Garnacho ‘slammed rival into hoardings’

Tensions reached boiling point during Manchester United and Bayern Munich's clash in the Champions League as Alejandro Garnacho and Kingsley Coman wrestled for the ball.

The Frenchman tried to muscle past the winger and reach the byline, only for Garnacho to slam the door shut. However, in the process, of shielding the ball, Garnacho sent Coman flying into the advertising hoardings.

The Bayern players took issue for the heavy-handed tactics from Garnacho, and a small brawl erupted between the two sides. It took peacemakers from both sides to calm things down as Manuel Neuer readied to take a goal-kick.

"Big fan of Garnacho hurling Coman into the advertising hoardings like something out of WWE," one fan joked. While a second replied: "Garnacho just chucking Coman into the advertising boards, you know that didn't feel good…"

Rasmus Hojlund and Dayot Upamecano were at the centre of the disagreement, while Bruno Fernandes and Harry Kane could also be seen exchanging words. Garnacho escaped any punishment for his role in the clash.

United were in desperate need of a win – not just to qualify for the knockout rounds of the Champions League – but to also bounce back from their heavy defeat at the hands of Bournemouth over the weekend.
