Former Bayern Munich player Lothar Matthaus criticized Manuel Neuer’s performance in the 3rd round Champions League match against Barcelona (1:4).
«Earlier, he anticipated every situation, kept everything in view at 360 degrees, and he could start attacks with a pass. Now he does not provide the defense with any reliability. This is also demonstrated by the fact that a little more than 40% of shots are saved by Neuer in the Bundesliga,»
