Bayern Munich goalkeeper Manuel Noer has become the oldest German national team player to have ever taken the field in world championship matches. Opta Analyst reports this.

The record was set after the 40-year goalkeeper of Viyshov was at the starting line for the match of the first round of Group E of the World Cup 2026 against Curacao. At the time of the beginning of the 20th century there were 40 years and 79 days. In this manner, Noer has surpassed the achievements of the enormously overzealous Bundestim Lothar Matthaus.
