Neuer: Bayern Munich Failed To Cope With Aston Villa’s Aggressive Play 

Bayern Munich goalkeeper Manuel Neuer says the team failed to cope with Aston Villa’s aggressive style of play in the UEFA Champions League.

Recall that Villa defeated Bayern Munich 1-0 at Villa on Wednesday to maintain their unbeaten run.

Reacting after the game, Neuer stated that Aston Villa were a better side and deserved the win.

“Out of 10 games, it’d probably be six wins, perhaps three draws and one loss, if you look at the game like that. We didn’t play a bad game, although not our best, but that can happen in football.

“Aston Villa did well, bided their time, especially in the first press, and tried to force us down one side.

“We struggled a bit against this aggressive defence. Nevertheless, we had our chances but we couldn’t put them in the back of the net.”
