Breaking: Bayern Munich star Manuel Neuer leaves milestone match vs. Mainz with injury
Neuer is the oldest player to suit up for FC Bayern in the Bundesliga.
Bayern Munich star Manuel Neuer left a milestone match against Mainz with an injury, marking his oldest appearance for the club in a Bundesliga game. The 42-year-old German goalkeeper has long been a key player for Bayern Munich, winning numerous titles and setting records throughout his career. In the 40th minute, an offside goal by Jae-sung Lee, which was initially thought to tie the match at 1-1, led to Neuer signaling for a substitute.
The physio team quickly attended to Neuer, who appeared to be struggling with an injury. Ultimately, Neuer had to leave the field, though the goal Lee scored was deemed offside by VAR.
