Bayern Munich have been eliminated from the third round of the German Cup. The Bavarians, who played with 10 men for most of the match, lost 1-0 to Leverkusen yesterday. After such a match, the Bayern players are expected to be upset. Manuel Neuer was also upset, but the German goalkeeper was a little more upset. Neuer thinks that he is the biggest reason behind the defeat.

Neuer did an incredible thing. He had to leave the field in the 18th minute. This is the first red card in his 866-match professional career for the former Germany captain. After losing to Nathan Taylor's second-half goal, Neuer expressed regret for being the reason for the team's defeat, saying, "The red card decided the outcome of the match." We are suffering, I am sorry.’

Neuer went outside the penalty box to challenge Jeremy Frimpong to stop a Leverkusen attack, but was fouled. The referee immediately showed him a straight red card. Neuer’s ‘history’ gave Israeli goalkeeper Daniel Peretz the opportunity to play his first match in a Bayern jersey. He made his debut 18 months after joining Bayern.
