FC Bayern Munich and Germany goalkeeper Manuel Neuer fractured his left foot during the UEFA Champions League quarter-final second-leg defeat by Real Madrid CF last night.
The 31 year old “sweeper-keeper” sustained the injury moments before Cristiano Ronaldo’s third goal according to a statement released by Bayern.
A decision on the appropriate treatment will be taken after an examination of the injury back home in Munich. Neuer could be set to miss the rest of the season.
