Manuel Neuer received a two-match German Cup ban for his first career red card after an unsportsmanlike conduct incident against Bayer Leverkusen during the match.
The DFB stated that Neuer will be excluded from all club cup matches until the ban is over, highlighting that such suspensions are often issued for preventing scoring chances.
Despite the severity of the ban, it will not affect Bayern as they have already been eliminated from the German Cup; Neuer's suspension won't be served until next season.
With Neuer's contract expiring this season, there's a possibility he may never serve the ban if he retires or leaves German football before then.
