Gaurdiola loses pants as Bayern tears Porto apart

Porto’s defence was not the only thing to be ripped apart at the Allianz Arena on Tuesday night as a jubilant Bayern Munich manager Pep Guardiola was left with a hole in his trousers.

Guardiola managed to tear the left trouser leg of his grey garments during an incredibly exciting night for Bayern, who led their opponents 5-0 at half-time.

The Spanish tactician’s underwear was on show after the incident, and he joked after the Champions League clash: ‘I’ll have to buy new ones for the next match.’

Majestic Bayern Munich destroyed Porto 6-1 to charge into the Champions League semi-finals 7-4 on aggregate on Tuesday and remain on track for a treble in Guardiola’s 100th competitive game in charge.

The five-time European champions, who lost 3-1 in the first leg last week, showed no sign of nerves as they dismantled the hapless Portuguese with an impressive attacking display for a fourth straight last four spot.

Despite missing Arjen Robben, Franck Ribery and David Alaba among others, Bayern took the initiative from the start.
