Neuer ready to play, confirms Germany coach Nagelsmann
HOUSTON: Penjaga gol veteran Jerman, Manuel Neuer, akan membuat penampilan pertamanya di pentas antarabangsa dalam tempoh hampir dua tahun apabila diturunkan menentang Curacao dalam aksi pembukaan Kumpulan E Piala Dunia 2026, awal pagi esok. Perkara itu disahkan pengendali Jerman, Julian Nagelsmann, yang menyatakan semua pemain berada dalam keadaan cergas untuk perlawanan berkenaan. "Semua pemain berada dalam keadaan sihat dan Manu akan bermula dalam kesebelasan utama," kata
Veteran German goalkeeper Manuel Neuer is set to make his first international appearance in nearly two years, starting against Curacao in their opening match of the 2026 World Cup qualifiers. Coach Julian Nagelsmann confirmed that all players are fit for the game, with Neuer being the designated starter. This match will mark Neuer's fifth World Cup appearance. The 40-year-old goalkeeper last played for Germany in the Euro 2024 quarter-final loss to Spain. Nagelsmann recalled Neuer after his strong performances for Bayern Munich last season, despite Neuer suffering a calf injury before the World Cup qualifiers, which saw him miss previous friendlies. His return means Oliver Baumann, who has been Germany's primary goalkeeper for the past two years, will likely start on the bench. Neuer was a key part of Germany's 2014 World Cup-winning squad.
The return of a seasoned and experienced goalkeeper like Manuel Neuer is a significant boost for the German national team as they begin their World Cup qualifying campaign.
