Chelsea star Antonio Rudiger never strays from the big talking points and was at the center of controversy at Euro 2020 after appearing to have bitten Paul Pogba in the first half of Germany’s clash against France.
With Les Bleus up 1-0 and looking good to their advantage, he was getting tasty among some of the players on the field.

Rudiger, however, may have taken a step too far at a time the VAR lost in Munich.
Battling Pogba on a throw-in, the German battled his opponent, who helped create the French Open with an exquisite game-changer.
As he waited for the ball to hit the field, Rudiger put his head close to his Premier League rival before appearing to bite into Pogba’s back, eliciting a cry of pain.
The French ace protested to the linesman about the matter, but play resumed shortly after, and Rudiger was unable to even speak.
