Manchester City defender Benjamin Mendy and Tottenham winger Erik Lamela have revealed that they have no hard feelings towards each other after their clash at Wembley on Monday night.

City prevailed with a 1-0 victory over Tottenham in the Premier League fixture, but the flashpoint between Mendy and Lamela was one of the main incidents up for debate.

Mendy appeared to swing for Lamela, attempting to punch him.

However, the Frenchman will face no retrospective action from the FA over the incident, after referee Kevin Friend stated in his post-match report that he had seen the incident.

The pair took to Twitter to reveal that they don't bear a grudge against each other.

Asked about the incident by a Tottenham fan, Mendy replied: "Lamela & me are good after game dont worry (and stop snitchin lol)".

Lamela then confirmed that was the case as he wrote: "Yeah bro we’re good! What happens on the pitch stays on the pitch."
