What Sadio Mane did with Bayern Munich fans as former Liverpool star scores first Bundesliga goal

Sadio Mane has had an impressive start to life at Bayern Munich and the current champions got their Bundesliga season off to a flying start on Friday night.

The German club beat Eintracht Frankfurt 6-1 in their opening game, with Joshua Kimmich, Benjamin Pavard, Mane, Jamal Musiala and Serge Gnabry among the goals. The result comes less than a week after their DFL Super Cup final victory over RB Leipzig, where Mane was also on the scoresheet.

Following Friday's win over Frankfurt, the Bayern players celebrated with supporters and the former Red looked right at home.

Footage captured showed the winger climbing on the stands to celebrate with fans. With a megaphone in hand, Mane acted as conductor for both supporters and players.

It earned a smile from Thomas Muller, who often celebrates with fans and a megaphone in the stands himself.

Bayern continue their Bundesliga campaign next weekend with a home game against Wolfsburg. It will be their first at the Allianz Arena this season and Mane's first opportunity to perform for their home crowd.

Liverpool get their own league campaign underway this weekend with an away trip to Fulham where new signings Darwin Nunez and Fabio Carvalho will hope to make some positive first impressions.
