Leroy Sane and Ilkay Gundogan Subjected to Racist Abuse During Germany's Friendly Against Serbia

Manchester City duo Leroy Sane and Ilkay Gundogan were both the target of racial abuse during Germany's 1-1 draw against Serbia during a friendly at the Volkswagen Arena in Wolfsburg on Wednesday.

The pair both started the friendly match, which saw Leon Goretzka's goal cancel out Serbia's opener from in-form forward Luka Jovic.

Sane was withdrawn late on in the match following a horror challenge from Serbia's Milan Pavkov, which saw the Red Star Belgrade man receive a straight red card.

According to reports in Germany picked up by the Manchester Evening News, the three individuals responsible for making the racial comments during the match have since turned themselves in to the German authorities.
