Former midfielder of “Bayern” Michael Ballack commented on Manuel Neuer’s mistake in the match with Arsenal (1:3) in the Champions League.
In the 76th minute, the Gunners organized a counterattack. Gabriel Martinelli flicked the ball past the Bayern goalkeeper, who was almost to the center circle, and confidently scored into an empty net, establishing the final score of the match.
“He took a risk, and it was unnecessary. Manuel made the wrong decision.
If you go for the ball, you need to play, and he knows it himself. He decided to take a risk – and was punished.
Often it works and he saves the team. But this time the odds turned against him,” Ballack said.
