  "account": "Bayern Munich secured a 2-1 win over Mainz in the Bundesliga, with goalkeeper Manuel Neuer marking his 40th birthday by becoming the oldest player in club history. However, his record-breaking day turned sour when he was forced off with a foot injury in the first half. Neuer's mistake led to Mainz's equalizer, but it was disallowed for offside. This error marks the fifth time in 17 Bundesliga games that Neuer's mistake has resulted in a goal, an average of once every 3.4 matches, compared to one every 24.8 games in his previous 248 appearances. Despite the setback, Bayern maintained their lead at the top of the Bundesliga with 21 points from nine games, a game ahead of Borussia Dortmund.",
  "summary": "MAINZ: Bayern Munich secured a 2-1 victory over Mainz in the Bundesliga on Saturday but the form of goalkeeper Manuel Neuer will again be in the spotlight after another error almost produced an equaliser for the home side in the first half.",
