Leroy Sane 'covers his face' before getting on Bayern Munich team bus after Sadio Mane clash

Footage of Leroy Sane 'covering his face' as he embarked on the Bayern Munich team bus has emerged after he clashed with Sadio Mane.

It was reported on Wednesday that Sane and Mane were involved in a 'bust-up' after their 3-0 defeat to Manchester City in the Champions League quarter-final first leg.

According to German outlet BILD, the pair had an argument on the Etihad pitch and after the full-time whistle, the former Liverpool forward complained about how the German winger spoke to him.

Mane then attacked Leroy Sane and punched him in the face, according to the report. In fact, they had to be separated by their teammates before Sane was then told to leave the dressing room.

Eyewitnesses said Mane's blow left a mark on his face, with The Athletic suggesting Sane was left with a bloodied lip following the altercation.

Now, over 24 hours after Tuesday's game, it has been suggested that Sane tried to cover up the injury as he made his way onto the team bus.

TikTok user @Ejcclips posted the footage alongside the caption: "Leroy Sane covers face following reports of being punched by teammate Sadio Mane."

Since being uploaded, the clip has received over 3.2 million views, with hundreds of fans commenting on the scene.

Away from the full-time scenes and it has been suggested that a moment in the 83rd minute triggered the altercation, when Mane ran into space for a through ball instead of coming short to receive the ball.

As you can see in the below footage, it appears former Manchester City forward Sane was far from pleased with the Senegalese international's movement in the final third.

Bayern manager Thomas Tuchel, meanwhile, says his side will "never give up" after their defeat to City.

"It’s a huge mountain," he told BT Sport when asked about the second leg. "You will not trick me into saying that it’s too big, but it’s big. Now we need to understand and swallow this kind of defeat, I will not allow my players that it creeps into their heads that this is a deserved result and something to worry about, because it’s not something to build on it.

"Of course we have the league match in between - that’s a tight race - but it’s a huge step forward for me today on the sideline. I was proud, I was happy with the performance and we will try. It’s football, it’s a home match, it’s a German team - we will never give up until the shower is warm after the match."
