Manuel Neuer fully aware of Netherlands threat

Germany and Bayern Munich goalkeeper Manuel Neuer is confident that his national teammates can expose the Netherlands' weaknesses.

The two sides meet for another mouth-watering Group B clash tomorrow, with Germany three points clear of their Dutch rivals in the table following a 1-0 win over Portugal.

"I grew up in Westfalen, which is close to the Dutch border," Neuer told dfb.de. "I have also holidayed there and I played with a lot of Dutch players at Schalke.

"At Bayern I play with Arjen Robben, who is a great reference point. When I was young, I attended a match between Germany and Netherlands. The atmiosphere was great. For the fans, this game is very special.

"Of course we know all about their strengths. I am happy that we will play against them in this tournament."

Germany can all but secure their place in the quarter-finals of the European Championships with a victory tomorrow.
