Bitter Neuer blunder breaks Kompany’s streak
Vincent Kompany suffered his first defeat as Bayern coach on Wednesday evening. The Munich side were beaten 1-0 at Aston Villa, Manuel Neuer did not cut a good figure when conceding a late goal ...
A long pass found its recipient in Jhon Duran in the 79th minute, and the Colombian took one touch and a fine touch to lift the ball over the Bayern keeper, who was positioned outside the penalty area. 1:0 for the home side ...
"That's our game"
And that was to be the end of it, as FC Bayern finished a game without points for the first time under Kompany. Neuer himself was mollified: "Everyone knows that I like to be far forward in games. The striker made good use of that. Of course, I could have been two meters further back, but that's just our game."
Duran, on the other hand, said after the game that he hadn't seen Neuer at all and had shot on pure instinct. The success proves him right, Aston Villa are sixth in the Champions League table with two wins from two games, while Bayern drop to 15th.
