The Munich team lost badly.
Catalan Barcelona Munich lost Bavaria in the match at the main stage of the Champions League. Munich legend Lothar Matthäus criticized team captain Manuel Neuer after the defeat.
“I don’t want to disrespect Manuel, but he is not the mainstay of the team as he used to be. Manuel Neuer is not Manuel Neuer today.
His game in goal has changed. Before, he thought of every situation, saw everything in 360 degrees, and could launch attacks with the first strand. Currently, it does not provide defense reliability. This is confirmed by the numbers in the Bundesliga: just over 40% of shots are saved.
I hope that soon he will play with confidence like before. In the past, he would have saved 1-2 of Barcelona’s four goals. Barcelona’s second goal is a good example: Manuel hesitated, then went off the line and couldn’t do anything,” said Matheus.
