Watch Thomas Muller go down in a heap after being ‘fouled’ by TAPE as Bayern Munich team-mates fall over in stitches
THOMAS MULLER left his Bayern Munich team-mates in absolute stitches after being felled by some training ground tape.
The former Germany striker was going through the motions at Bayern’s Sabner Strasse training ground when some rogue tape inadvertently took him out.
Muller, 35, tripped over the white tape after controlling a pass from one of his team-mates.
And his colleagues couldn’t help but chuckle at his tumble, belly-laughing at the sheer hilarity of the situation as they collapsed to the turf.
Even head coach Vincent Kompany couldn’t contain his laughter, smiling as the striker dusted himself off and got back to his feet.
Muller, who has never been one to shy away from the camera, saw the funny side of his training ground tumble.
After clocking the club’s videographer, he said: “Ah yes, at least that’s good [to have on camera].
“That’s good for the clicks. Best content of the month.
“Come on boys. Let’s all have a smile. Hello, Instagram. That’s good for the clicks.”
The clip, unsurprisingly, went viral and received a slew of comments from footie fans.

Another chimed in with a series of laughing emojis: “The way they laughed.”
