Bayern Munich’s goalkeeper and captain Manuel Neuer will play in this weekend’s German Cup final against RB Leipzig, coach Niko Kovac revealed on Friday. The Bayern number one had hoped to return to the first team two weeks ago but was still out of action when Bayern wrapped up the league title in Munich last weekend. Neuer said that the cup final in Berlin was always “something special”. Neuer, who missed last year’s final due to injury, said he could sympathise with Goretzka. I feel for Leon because he is injured and will miss his first ever cup final,” said the Bayern keeper.
