Fans have called time on Manuel Neuer’s international career following his mistake in Germany’s friendly against Greece. 

The German number one was winning his 118th cap in the Euro 2024 warm-up, but it won’t a game he’ll look back upon fondly. 

Just after the half hour mark, the Bayern Munich stopper spilled a simple shot straight into the path of Giorgos Masouras, who profited from the mistake to put the Greeks into the lead. 

Thankfully for the 38-year-old, Kai Havertz and Pascal Gross saved some of his blushes with a second half goals for the Euro 2024 hosts, but the error didn’t go unnoticed by fans on social media. 

Several comments were made about Neuer and whether or not he can still cut it at as an international goalkeeper.

‘For a unbelievable goalie he sure does make a lot of mistakes.’ One post read, while there were several calls for Marc ter Stegen to given the nod as the German’s number one. 

‘He’s past his prime. Give Ter Stegen a chance.’ said one fan, with another stating, ‘It’s about time Ter Stegen becomes a starter.

And another who simply asked, ‘They benching Ter Stegen for this?’

However, perhaps the best reasoning behind Neuer’s mistake came from the fan who claimed Real Madrid’s Joselu is to blame. 

It was the Spanish striker who scored two goals past Neuer in the Champions League final, and the stated that he ended the Bayern stopper. 

“NEUER IS NOT THE SAME SINCE JOSELU ENDED HIM!’ they said.

 Despite the mistake in the 2-1 win, Neuer is likely to head into the finals at Julian Nagelsmann’s first-choice keeper.

It will be the goalie’s eighth tournament for the national team, having made his international debut in 2010.

In 2014 he was part of the squad that won the World Cup in Brazil, and was named goalie of the tournament.
