38-year-old Manuel Neuer can be said to have cost his team their chances in the German Cup.

Munich's Bayern lost 0:1 to Bayer Leverkusen in the German Cup quarter-finals.

In the 17th minute, M. Neuer was sent off for a last-ditch foul. He was very far from his goal, but this time his skill did not save him. It was the first red card of the veteran's career.

In the 69th minute, Nathan Tella headed in the winning goal for the German champions.

Bayern must now focus on the Champions League and the Bundesliga.
