Neuer: Calfs are always dangerous, I realize that I need to control the number of sprints

On May 12th, Neuer proved his condition after he recovered from injury with a strong return. After a wonderful performance, he talked about the difficult times over the past few weeks and the gradually emerging age issues, according to the Munich Evening News.

After two months of injury due to a laceration of muscle fibers, Neuer is more cautious than usual, but remains reliable. "When you hold up the prize plate here, you naturally want to say goodbye in a decent way." Neuer said, who is now the second-old Bundesliga player in Bayern's history. But there is no trace of Neuer's age in the stands.

Despite his wonderful performance after his comeback, Neuer can still feel the pressure of returning to the old age. But what has troubled him is not the right calf that has had problems in the past few weeks. "During this period, my left calf might feel a little difficult," Neuer revealed in the mixed interview area.

This has nothing to do with the over-celebration of the problem he caused when he was against Leverkusen in the Champions League quarter-finals. In fact, he also reserved it at that time. "I have never experienced such high-intensity preparations and games lately," Neuer explained. "With the pressure factor, I am really under fire." The tactical adjustments caused by Stanisic's replacement due to injury also added an additional burden.

"I realized by then that I had to control my sprints," he explained, "even when the white beer bath was celebrated." But Neuer was not too worried about it. The experienced veteran believes that the game can gradually restore form and flexibility.

He hopes to put the long period of recovery behind his head: "Unfortunately this calf injury does become complicated at a certain age. The calf part is always dangerous, so I have to give myself enough time to recover."

But now it's all over. I won't consider resting for the time being. "It's absolutely fine to participate in the Club World Cup, and the game next weekend will not be a problem." Neuer made it clear.

Neuer is 39 years old and has played for Bayern for 16 seasons and has played in a total of 555 games.
