It is now claimed Tuchel was so furious because Leipzig’s fitness coach, Daniel Behlau, reportedly launched an X-rated rant at one of his players.
Behlau is claimed to have screamed “you f***ing pussy” at an unknown PSG star, in German, during the second-half.
Tuchel, himself German, was able to understand the rant and took exception to the disgusting comment.
The French giants’ boss stormed over to him at full-time to confront him.
Reports claim Tuchel yelled: “Everything you shouted, it’s a shame you don’t admit it.”
Behlau is said to have simply responded: “Congratulations.”
Tuchel had already been embroiled in a row with Leipzig boss Julian Nagelsmann during the game, for what he believed to be an overly-aggressive approach from the Germans.
The PSG coach was left angered after another member of Leipzig staff joined in.

But Tuchel did attempt to play down the coming-together after the game.
He said: “It was between me and Julian.
“That is OK between two head coaches, but then a third person interfered.
“I didn’t like that but it has since been sorted out.”
Nagelsmann himself later said: “We fouled a lot, you can see that statistically.
“That wasn’t planned, we just often came too late into challenges.
“He complained because he wanted to protect his players. That’s all normal.
“I think we had 34 fouls at the end of the day so you can say something.”
