Manuel Neuer was extremely important for Germany in the victory against Hungary. At the start, according to the Sofascore, the archer made three saves – including a beautiful bridge from a free kick taken by Szoboszlai, and hit two long throws.
Despite his impressive record, the German goalkeeper has yet to win the European Championship in his career. Along with great players like Toni Kroos, Musiala and Kimmich, Neuer seeks to win the competition and return the cup to Germany, the biggest champion along with Spain, with three.
Already qualified for the next phase, Germany returns to the pitch on Sunday, at 4pm (BrasĂlia time), to face Switzerland, at Deutsche Bank Park. The match is valid for the third and final round of the Eurocup group stage.
