Thomas Muller toasted Bayern Munich’s Champions League win over Besiktas by enjoying a bizarre dance with a horse.

Bayern’s 5-0 victory in Tuesday’s first leg in Bavaria means the German champions are now cantering towards the quarter-finals.

Muller had a big hand in their brilliant win, netting either side of half-time to help Jupp Heynckes’s side put one hoof into the next round.

And following the Allianz Arena clash, Muller was seen enjoying a dance with his four-legged friend. In near-perfect symmetry, Muller and the horse cocked their left legs back and forth before doing the same with their right.

‘Stop horsing around @esmuellert,’ the club wrote alongside the video on their official Twitter account.

After the victory on Tuesday, Muller admitted that the sending off of Domagoj Vida after 16 minutes was a turning point in the game.

He told the club’s website: ‘The red card played right into our hands. We lacked aggression when we had the ball in the first half, we were a bit sluggish.

‘It changed abruptly in the second half, we really hit the gas. (Besiktas) were tired then.

‘It’s a superb result with regard to the return leg. We knew we had to deliver because it will be a different game altogether in Turkey.’
