Goalkeeper Manuel Neuer has admitted Germany “screwed up together” as they crashed out of the 2018 World Cup.

Neuer, who received plenty of personal criticism for playing out on the wing in the final moments of the defeat to South Korea on Wednesday, also stated his intention to continue playing for the national team.

“You have to say we do not deserve (to go through), ” he said in quotes reported on the German federation’s official website dfb.de.

“In the second round everybody would have liked to play against us. How are we going to be dangerous to an opponent if we do not get our performance (right)?

“We gave a bad picture in the three games. I can not answer why that happened. We have to take responsibility. We screwed up, (and) we screwed up together.”
