Bayern Munich have DECLARED WAR on the English press - banning The Sunand The Mirror from next week's Champions League return-leg withManchester United.

The Telegraph says the German giants have refused to give accreditation to journalists from the two tabloids for the return leg in Munich next Wednesday after they mocked midfielder Bastian Schweinsteiger.

Schweinsteiger was sent off in the 90th minute of the game for a foul on England international Wayne Rooney, a decision Bayern manager Pep Guardiola said was "wrong" in his post-match press conference.

The Mirror have been banned for their headline 'You Dirty Schwein' while The Sun have also been prevented from attending the game at the Allianz Arena for their headline 'You Schwein'.
