Manual Neuer has questioned his Germany team-mates' inability to see out a victory after they threw away a one-goal lead to lose to Japan in their World Cup opener.
Ilkay Gundogan's first-half penalty had put Germany in command of the Group E fixture as they looked on course to record a routine win. But a number of substitutions revitalised Japan in the second half, and Germany were eventually left ruing their failure to add to their lead.
First Ritsu Doan pulled Japan back level on 75 minutes with a close-range finish, before Takuma Asano fired into the roof of the net past Neuer from an acute angle eight minutes later to complete the remarkable turnaround. The result leaves Germany on the brink of elimination from the tournament, with Spain their next opponents.
