Manuel Neuer snaps after Real Madrid heroics: 'We're not talking about that'Manuel Neuer earned the player of the match award for his performance in Bayern Munich's 2-1 win over Real Madrid in the Champions League, but was tetchy post-matchCommentsSportFelix Keith Senior Sports Reporter07:51, 08 Apr 2026View 2 ImagesManuel Neuer did not want to discuss the national team(Image: Sky Sports Germany)Manuel Neuer was irritated by the line of questioning from reporters after he put in a stunning performance to help Bayern Munich beat Real Madrid. Bayern triumphed 2-1 in the first leg of their Champions League quarter final at the Bernabeu on Tuesday night, thanks largely to their goalkeeper.‌Goals from Luis Diaz and Harry Kane had the away side 2-0 up just seconds into the second half, but their lead was far from secure. Neuer made a handful of stunning stops to keep out Kylian Mbappe and Vinicius Junior.‌Trent Alexander-Arnold's cross was converted by Mbappe at the back post to make it 2-1, but Real could not beat Neuer a second time.
