AMID THE EXCITEMENT of Bayern Munich’s Champions League win last night, Mario Mandzukic temporarily lost his medal.

As Mandzukic jumped up and down in celebration, his medal fell to the ground.

The player was oblivious to what had happened initially, though fortunately for him, the ever-reliable Franck Ribery was on hand to retrieve it.
