Bayern Munich could be at least two goals down if it were not for Manuel Neuer's unbelievable ability to anticipate and extinguish threats on goal.
Following his first-half kick-save on Luis Suarez when the Uruguayan found himself alone on goal, the German international was forced to deal with Neymar's breakaway run.
Only this time, Neuer played the role of defender as he lunged out of his box and thumped the ball out of bounds to thwart the Brazilian's effort.
