Manuel Neuer's 'Five-Star Skill' vs Arsenal Kickstarts Bayern Move that Leads to Penalty
Manuel Neuer has been lauded by fans for his audacious piece of skill in the build-up to Bayern Munich's second goal against Arsenal in the Champions League.
Neuer's Bravado on Display
The veteran keeper is renowned for his brashness and confidence, and it was in full display during the Champions League quarter-final first leg at the Emirates. Amid a breathless first half, the score was locked at 1-1 when Neuer had the ball at his feet inside his own box.
A Keeper Beyond the Norm
Under pressure from Kai Havertz, many keepers would have taken the safety-first approach and booted the ball downfield. However, Neuer isn’t your average keeper. Showing incredible belief in his footwork, the 38-year-old nonchalantly flicked the ball up and volleyed it to a team-mate.
Setting the Stage for Victory
Neuer's display of skill wasn’t just for show. It started the move which led to Leroy Sane breaking into the Arsenal box and being scythed down by William Saliba, with Harry Kane stroking home the penalty.
Manuel Neuer's maneuver not only showcased his exceptional abilities but also played a pivotal role in Bayern's triumph over Arsenal.
