Bayern Munich goalkeeper Manuel Neuer has urged his side to show their intensity from the start when they take on Flamengo in the Club World Cup round of 16.

The German side will take on Flamengo in the last 16 for a place in the quarter-final when they meet at the Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, North Carolina on Sunday.

Bayern come into this fixture after coming in second place in Group C with six points, having won two games and suffered one defeat.

Nauer is feeling confident that they can secure the win against the Brazilian side.

“We need to start with intensity in our next game with Flamengo,” said Neuer.

“Honestly, I’m feeling positive because of the second half and what we achieved with our team, how we created the chances.

“If we can go 90 minutes with this tempo and how we created our chances, I feel positive for the tournament.”
