TV cameras quickly cut away as fan appears to go to snort substance during Aston Villa’s clash against Bayern Munich
TNT SPORTS quickly cut away from a Bayern Munich fan after he appeared to be preparing to snort a substance off his hand at Villa Park.
The Bundesliga giants travelled to the Midlands for a blockbuster Champions League clash against Unai Emery‘s Aston Villa on Wednesday night – and came away beaten 1-0.
During the first half the cameras cut to the travelling German supporters to capture a sense of the atmosphere.
But instead they showed a Bayern fan who seemed to pour something on his hand and prepare to snort it.
A lightning quick response from the TNT Sports producers ensured they cut away before anything else was shown.
It came just five minutes before Villa had a goal disallowed in the match.
Emery‘s side were looking to build on their 3-0 win over Young Boys in their Champions League opener.
Bayern promised to be a much more formidable opposition as Harry Kane and Co rocked up at Villa Park.
But the hosts took the lead in the 79th minute when Colombian striker Jhon Duran lobbed Bayern’s veteran goalkeeper Manuel Neuer from 30 yards.
The goal sparked wild scenes at Villa Park, and echoed the club’s memorable European Cup final triumph over the German side in 1982.
