​Man City winger Sane escapes injury from horror tackle

Manchester City winger Leroy Sane was lucky to escape without any injury against Serbia.

The flying City wide man was subject to a rash challenge from Serbia's Milan Pavkov.

He hobbled off the pitch, but has escaped serious damage. Pavkov received a red card for the incident.

The 23-year-old should be fit for Germany's next game, along with City's upcoming fixtures.

Speaking of the challenge, Germany boss Joachim Low said to reporters: "It was a vicious foul. Sane was lucky and got away with not getting hurt but such fouls can break bones."
