With Paris Saint-Germain set to take on Bayern Munich in the Champions League on Tuesday, L’Equipe reports that 38-year-old goalkeeper Manuel Neuer is doubtful for the match due to a rib injury.
We’re never happy about absences, but they’re part and parcel of soccer. So much the better for PSG if the German keeper isn’t there, but we still prefer it when the great players are on the pitch. It’s going to be an intense match, regardless of the injuries, and if Neuer isn’t there, there’s no doubt that his replacement will be up to Bavaria’s high standards.
