Bayern Munich goalkeeper Manuel Neuer: 'First Arsenal goal was my fault'

Bayern Munich goalkeeper Manuel Neuer has taken responsibility for Arsenal's opening goal during his side's 2-0 defeat to the Gunners in the Champions League.

Although the German admitted he was at fault for Olivier Giroud's strike, the stopper insisted that a draw would have been a fairer result.

"Basically, I played well. But it was my big mistake that led to Arsenal's first goal. I think, a draw would have been a more appropriate result," BBC Sport quotes him as saying.

Mesut Ozil added a second for Arsenal in the 90th minute to help them to their first win of the Champions League campaign.
