Bayern Munich’s Manuel Neuer (40) reflects on five-goal, zero-save nightmare against PSG
Bayern Munich goalkeeper Manuel Neuer found himself understandably more subdued than his teammates after Tuesday night’s 5-4 defeat to PSG. Neuer didn’t make a single save in the opening leg defeat at the Parc des Princes. The 40-year-old looked especially weak on several of the PSG goals.
Such a performance isn’t something the German footballing legend is accustomed to commenting on this season. In point of fact, when Bayern met PSG in the group phase of the current 2025/26 Bundesliga competition, Neuer proved the star of the show and received special praise afterwards.
As the German national team prepares to head to the 2026 Summer World Cup without a truly experienced keeper, the talk of Neuer returning to the national team simply refuses to cease. Many excellent matches from Neuer this season have many Germans hoping to “re-draft” him.
Neuer’s performance in this UCL match might silent the movement. Moreover, the question as to whether Bayern may wish to extend Neuer’s expiring contract now comes into doubt. Chief Bayern personnel executive Max Eberl has insisted that there will be further discussions.

Neuer didn’t appear in the mood to discuss much in the mixed zone.
“Yeah, the result is like a 1-0 loss,” a resigned Neuer told reporters. “There was a lot going on today. Lots of drama. We can do a lot better at the back than we did today. Five goals isn’t good enough for a defense and a keeper. That’s clear enough. We still won’t stick our head in the sand and we’ll look ahead.“
“Yeah, it’s tough,” Neuer remarked before pausing when asked how he felt about conceding five goals and not making a single save. “You saw the goals. It was hard to get a hand in. Two of them were close. Sometimes we weren’t granted the right amount of luck. In any event, [the goalscorers] are world class footballers.
“Maybe it will be different at home next week,” Neuer concluded.
