      New footage shows Harry Kane has to be held back from Man Utd star Alejandro Garnacho during furious row

      by

      NEW footage has emerged of Harry Kane being held back by team-mates after raging at Manchester United winger Alejandro Garnacho. The Red Devils lost 1-0 to Bayern Munich in their must-win final Champions League group game on Tuesday at Old Trafford.

      Kane began complaining to referee Espen Eskas
      But players from both teams squared up after a “naughty incident” on 24 minutes.
      Garnacho was attempting to get past Kingsley Coman, but ended up sending the Bayern winger into the pitchside hoardings.
      And the Old Trafford drop off between the pitch and advertising boards is a steep one.
      Coman had used his strength to block Garnacho’s run, but the 19-year-old tried to keep his balance which sent the Frenchman flying.

      His Bayern team-mates raced over to square up to the United man, who soon had Rasmus Hojlund and Raphael Varane backing him up.
      But a different angle now shows Kane’s angry expression as he was the first player who sprinted towards the young Argentinian.
      Kane stopped just before Garnacho’s face, as the United youngster walked in the opposite direction.
      Fans heaped praise on Alphonso Davies, who acted as a barrier between the England captain and Garnacho.

      Fortunately, Coman escaped the incident unscathed and the referee eventually continued with the game without punishment.
      Coman eventually got the last laugh, after his 71st minute goal sent United out of Europe altogether.
      However, Kane was all-smiles during his interview with TNT Sports crew Laura Woods, and United legends Rio Ferdinand and Paul Scholes.
      The Red Devils suffered four defeats in six games, winning just once, which is also a new record Champions League low for them as they finished rock bottom of Group A.

      Champions League last-16 draw permutations as Newcastle and giants PSG and AC Milan look to secure qualification

      by

      WEDNESDAY night sees the last round of fixtures in the Champions League group stage before we know who has made it through into the last 16.Groups A to D were all decided on Tuesday, with Manchester United most notably crashing out of their group – and European competition altogether.

      Newcastle need Borussia Dortmund to beat PSGCredit: Rex
      Newcastle were drawn in this year’s group of death, alongside Borussia Dortmund, PSG and AC Milan, and, unsurprisingly, that group is the most open at this stage.
      Dortmund are top on 10 points and through to the last 16 already.
      They will go through as group winners if they can avoid defeat against PSG.
      PSG, second in the group, will go through as group winners if they can win away at Dortmund.
      READ MORE FOOTBALL NEWS
      However, they can still go through as runners up with a DEFEAT, if Newcastle and AC Milan draw, or Milan win.
      While a draw against Dortmund will also be enough, as long as Newcastle don’t win.
      That’s because Eddie Howe’s side have the head-to-head tie-breaker over the PSG.
      Newcastle must get three points at home to Milan if they are to have any hope of getting into the last 16.

      A draw will see Newcastle qualify for the Europa League on goal difference, with their own head-to-head with Milan even.
      Milan need to beat Newcastle and hope PSG lose to Dortmund.
      Group E has little to be decided with both Atletico Madrid and Lazio through to the last 16 already – but they are playing each other, meaning whoever wins will go through top of their group.
      Atletico only need a draw to go through as group winners as they are top by one point.
      Manchester City have Group G sewn up with RB Leipzig heading through in second.
      And in Group H, Shakhtar and Porto will battle it out to join Barcelona in the last 16. More

      That result dumped the Red Devils out of Europe completely, with the striker creating the chance for Kingsley Coman to score the only goal of the game.
      Kane, who left Tottenham for Bayern in a £104million move in August, joined much-loved TNT Sports host Woods and pundits Rio Ferdinand and Paul Scholes afterwards to discuss how he was settling in Germany.
      After revealing that he had been struggling with the admin side of moving his family to a new country, Woods then had a request for the 30-year-old star.
      The ex-talkSPORT presenter, who had been praised by fans for her latest bold choice of all-leather outfit, asked: ““How’s your German coming on?”

      Kane replied gingerly with just an “Err” before Ferdinand interrupted and said: “Give me something. Just a little something.”
      Kane responded: “Nah, I can’t. I’m saving that for the summer when we’re there for the Euros. But I’m doing a couple of lessons a week, so…”
      Woods then joked: “Not well, then.”
      To which Kane admitted: “Basically, yeah. I don’t want to embarrass myself!”

      The icon, who has scored 22 goals for Bayern already, then went into depth about the difficulties of settling in Germany with his wife and four kids.
      They had been living in hotel until they recently found a permanent residence to move in to after Christmas as he added: “It’s been difficult. It was my first move in my career.
      “I probably didn’t realise how much goes into it. Not just with the new team, but the personal stuff with the family. I’ve got four kids.
      “Luckily, we’ve found a house now and we’ll be looking to move in after the winter break.
      “It’s nice to have that settled. I guess the only problem is if I stop scoring when they come, I might have to send them back!”

      Man Utd legend ‘worried about Ten Hag’ as he names two managers who could implement free-flowing style of play

      by

      JAAP STAM is “worried” about Erik ten Hag’s future at Manchester United after the club tamely dropped out of the Champions League on Tuesday.The Manchester United legend is confused about the Dutchman’s playing style and points out two Premier League bosses who have delivered the approach he had at Ajax.

      United not only fell out of the Champions League, but out of European competition altogether following the Bayern defeat.
      Finishing bottom of Group A meant Ten Hag’s troops failed to even make the Europa League.
      And former Red Devils defender Stam is concerned about Ten Hag, who is set to face increased pressure after the disastrous result.
      Ten Hag has clashed with ex-player Cristiano Ronaldo as well as current stars Raphael Varane and Jadon Sancho.
      READ MORE MAN UTD NEWS
      And certain portions of the media have been banned from press conferences.
      Stam, who won the Treble with United in 1999, told the Stick to Football podcast by Sky Bet: “He has got to be worried and thinking about what’s going to happen now.
      “You can ban players, but it’s also about man-management of course and how to work with and handle players.
      “There was the Cristiano Ronaldo thing, the Jadon Sancho thing, Raphael Varane probably – I don’t know if something’s happened over there.

      “There’s the thing with the press now and banning journalists from press conferences. It doesn’t work in your favour as a manager.
      “You need to have peace and quiet… you don’t want to pay too much attention to other things like players and the press.
      “You need to fully focus, and I don’t think you want to talk about players or what players think about you as a manager.
      “I worry a little bit for him and that’s why it would be good if he gets the results.”
      Ten Hag had a successful first term at Old Trafford finishing third in the league and winning the EFL Cup.
      But this season and £400million later the Dutchman’s side has regressed.
      Compared to his success at Ajax where he won three Eredivisie titles, Stam cannot understand why the Man Utd boss has not delivered the same success at Old Trafford.
      The ex-Ajax star even suggested how Spurs’ Ange Postecoglou and Brighton’s Roberto De Zerbi have been able to reflect the free-flowing style Ten Hag once had.
      He added: “I think he’s a good coach and I’m wondering this myself and we even asked him for ViaPlay – when are we going to see this style of play we saw at Ajax?
      “He made a certain comment and he mentioned that he could never play the way he played at Ajax over here.
      “I’m surprised because I’ve seen Roberto De Zerbi and Tottenham with Ange Postecoglou and how they’re playing.”

      But things could get worse for the Red Devils before they get better.
      Although they sit sixth in the Premier League table, Sunday sees a daunting visit to in-form Liverpool, who thrashed them 7-0 in the same fixture last term.
