Former Man United star Eric Bailly caught in heated clash with his own TEAM-MATE during Besiktas defeat, before defender claims 'competitive tension' caused on-pitch bust-up

Ex-Man United defender Eric Bailly was caught in a heated bust-up with his Besiktas team-mate before getting substituted at half-time by their manager.

The incident occurred midway through Besiktas' league clash with Antalyaspor, where the visitors were handed a disappointing 3-2 defeat.

Bailly was unable to prevent his side from suffering the loss after getting removed at the break, following the unsavoury scenes on the pitch.

Prior to half-time, Bailly was seen marching towards team-mate Tayfur Bingöl before reaching out and pulling the midfielder by his shoulder.

Bingöl was swung around and met by the Ivory Coast international, who was clearly fuming at an incident earlier in the match.
