Yaya Toure and Manchester City teammate Mario Balotelli clashed AGAIN at halftime of their 3-3 draw with Sunderland.

The pair had to be pulled apart at half-time as they trailed Sunderland 2-1 at home before a late rally secured a 3-3 draw, says the Daily Mail.

Balotelli and Toure had to be separated by Yaya's brother Kolo as they squared up in front of stunned team-mates at the Etihad Stadium.

It is believed Balotelli took exception to the midfielder's criticism about his behaviour during the match.
