Vine: Manuel Neuer being Manuel Neuer, hassling, harrying and slide tackling 30 yards from goal

Neuer knows no bounds.

Even during the winter break the German 'keeper can't keep a low profile. Well, when your goalie is sprinting 30 yards from his line and not only timing a slide tackle to perfection, but then standing up and coming back for more, it's going to get noticed. But this is nothing new for the Bayern 'keeper. Munich beat Saudi Arabia side Al Hilal 4-0 in a friendly this afternoon. Dante scored, Schweinsteiger scored, Lewandowski and Pizarro did, too. But Manuel Neuer was up to his old tricks again. We thought he was just content with his new sweeper role but now it turns out he wants to become a fully-pledged centre half. Unleash him, Pep. Unleash him.
