Goalkeeper Manuel Neuer, who serves as the leader of Bayern Munich's defense, left due to injury. Neuer's departure, who was a strong supporter of Munich's defense along with South Korean national team Kim Min-jae, is painful news for the team. The defensive burden on Kim Min-jae is also expected to increase. Above all, Munich, which is aiming to win both the league and the Champions League, could face a major setback in its future schedule.
Munich said on its official channel on the 6th (Korea time) that Manuel Neuer suffered an injury to his right calf muscle during the last UEFA Champions League match against Bayer Leverkusen"This is a fact that Bayern Munich medical staff's examination revealed. As a result, Munich's goalkeeper is out of power for the time being."
Neuer's injury was ridiculous. This is because he was injured while performing a violent ceremony because he was happy with his teammate's score. For this reason, some even pointed out that Neuer should be banned from celebrating.

Munich goalkeeper Jean-Marie Papp told a media outlet that "Noyer will change his way of celebrating in the future. If not, the club should advise him to do so" he insisted.
Pap also stressed that Neuer should save himself considering that he is in his late 30s.
Pap said "It was an impromptu act. It is difficult to prevent such injuries, but he must consciously avoid such explosive movements in the future"You don't have to copy everything young players do. About 70 percent of training is enough. Sometimes you have to take a day off."
In the meantime, Pap said "Noyer is a smart player. We will coordinate our own actions,' he added.
Neuer plays an important role in the defensive side along with Munich's central defensive duo Kim Min-jae and Upamecano. Neuer's absence as captain may hamper his team's bid to remain at the top of the league and win the Champions League.
