German international Lukas Podolski wasn’t too happy with the comments of DSF reporter Christian Ortlepp in the aftermath of the Nationalelf’s 1-0 friendy loss against Argentina. The striker attacked the reporter.

“That wasn’t your best outing in a German shirt. Your best actions probably took place during the warm-up,” Ortlepp was reported as saying to Podolski in the mixed zone.

The Koeln attacker was clearly not amused, and reacted by challenging the DSF reporter to a fight.

“You have a big mouth with all your journalist friends around you, but I’d like to see you coming to my door. Bring it on,” said Podolski to Ortlepp before trying to push him in the face.

However, the DSF reporter downplayed the interview later on and denied that Podolski had physically attacked him.

“Lukas probably misinterpreted my words and then overreacted a bit. However, he didn’t attack me or anything,” said Ortlepp to Express.
