BERLIN (Reuters) - Bayern Munich keeper Manuel Neuer has been included in their squad for the German Cup final against Eintracht Frankfurt on Saturday and will start on the bench, coach Jupp Heynckes said on Friday.

The 32-year-old, who was named this week in Germany's preliminary World Cup squad, has not played a game since breaking a bone in his foot back in September, putting his chances of making next month's tournament in Russia in serious doubt.
