📲 After Bayern go behind: the internet is split over Neuer | OneFootball

After Manuel Neuer missed four and a half of Bayern’s last five Bundesliga matches due to injury, the veteran is back between the posts today. After the first half ended goalless, the record champions conceded the 1-0 shortly after the restart through Johan Manzambi. 

The Swiss player dribbled his way toward the penalty area and buried the ball in the Bayern net from around 25 meters out – Neuer could only watch it go by. After going behind, a debate about the now 40-year-old goalkeeper flared up on X. 

The 0-2 deficit is unlikely to quiet the discussion. Neuer did not look good at all there, parrying the corner straight to a Freiburg player’s feet - Höler only had to smash the ball into the net.

Bayern’s goalkeeper will definitely have to listen to the criticism after the match. But in fairness, the 2014 World Cup winner also came up with one or two really strong saves before the goals.
