"He felt something in his calf. I don't want to speculate, we'll see. Since Die Roten didn't want to take any risks, he was substituted at halftime. It remains to be seen how long Neuer will be on the sidelines due to the latest injury."
"Urbig has done fairly well for Bayern over the last couple of weeks. Even though Bayern have not kept clean sheets, the goals conceded were not Urbig's fault. He has done a good job while helping his defense play out from the back."
"Friday was a rare instance when Bayern were without their talisman in the attack. Harry Kane missed the game against Borussia Monchengladbach due to a minor injury. Kompany is hopeful about his return to action against Atalanta on Tuesday."
Bayern Munich secured a 4-1 victory against Borussia Monchengladbach, with manager Vincent Kompany utilizing squad and academy players. However, the match was marred by Manuel Neuer's injury during the second half. The veteran goalkeeper, recently returned from a three-week absence due to torn muscle fiber, felt something in his calf and was substituted at halftime by Jonas Urbig as a precautionary measure. Neuer is expected to miss Bayern's round of 16 encounter against Atalanta on Tuesday. Urbig has performed well in recent appearances, demonstrating solid distribution skills. Meanwhile, Harry Kane missed Friday's match due to minor injury but is anticipated to be available for the upcoming Atalanta fixture.
