Vincent Kompany defends Jonas Urbig after German legends express doubts
Story updated
The story in brief
29-second read(Photo by Sven Hoppe/picture alliance via Getty Images) Bayern Munich’s No. 2 goalkeeper has been included in the fallout over this week’s eyebrow-raising Champions League draw against Viking FK.
Jonas Urbig started in Manuel Neuer’s place and, while he was far from the only or even the main storyline of the day, conceded three goals as the Bavarians dropped points in a 3-3 draw.
Sofascore has Urbig at -0.44 goals prevented in that game, based on the quality of shots faced. After the match, former German goalkeeping greats Oliver Kahn and Jens Lehmann publicly aired doubts over whether the 23-year-old is truly ready to assume Neuer’s mantle.
