Granit Xhaka was caught in a furious altercation with Bayer Leverkusen fans after his side suffered a shock 2-1 defeat against third-tier German club Arminia Bielefeld.
Leverkusen, who won the German Cup last season under Xabi Alonso, have failed to defend their crown after being eliminated from the competition in stunning circumstances on Tuesday night.
Despite taking the lead through Jonathan Tah in the 17th minute, Xhaka and his team found themselves 2-1 behind at the break following goals from Marius Worl and Maximilian Grosser.
The reigning Bundesliga champions pushed for an equaliser in the second half but came up empty-handed to the frustration of their supporters — and Xhaka felt the full force of their fury at full-time after Leverkusen's shock elimination was confirmed.
