'Dayot Upamecano is a lucky boy!': Social media reacts after Bayern Munich defender escapes a red card for a foul on Man City's Erling Haaland... as France international is described as 'unbelievably bad' after his first-half performance

Social media users have described Dayot Upamecano as 'unbelievably bad' after he escaped a red card in Bayern Munich's clash with Man City on Wednesday.

The France international was at centre-stage in the first-leg last week, where City ran riot and secured a 3-0 victory at the Etihad.

Upamecano had been singled out for numerous defensive mistakes in that match and fans in Germany would have been hoping for a different performance in the second-leg.

However, things nearly took a nightmare start for the defender after he was awarded a red card for a foul on Man City's Erling Haaland.
