Bayern goalkeeper Manuel Neuer wasn’t able to show much in the game in Cologne – unfavorable if you would like to have your place in the national team again. What to do? Show commitment mentally and rhetorically.
From the upper tier of the Müngersdorf stadium, the spectators could not only see how the cold wind made the rain dance over the pitch and shake the trees like Oliver Kahn once did to his teammate Andreas Herzog. They also saw Kahn’s descendant Manuel Neuer, who didn’t care about the weather in the autumn storm but was obviously very comfortable.
