"Neuer was replaced by Jonas Urbig at half-time of Bayern's 3-0 win away to Werder Bremen, a result that helped restore their six-point lead at the top of the Bundesliga."
Manuel Neuer sustained a torn muscle fibre in his left calf during Bayern's Bundesliga match at Werder Bremen and will be sidelined for the time being. He was substituted at half-time and replaced by Jonas Urbig. Initial comments from sporting director Max Eberl suggested the substitution was precautionary, but a scan revealed a more serious tear. Bayern's medical unit confirmed the injury after a thorough examination. Neuer has made 18 Bundesliga appearances this season with five clean sheets. He missed ten games last season with a similar calf issue. Early reports indicate an absence of up to three weeks, with upcoming fixtures against Eintracht Frankfurt and Borussia Dortmund.
