Watch: Neuer's diving save denies Slovakia equaliser
Reuters
Just when Slovakia thought it had broken through the German backline, Manuel Neuer came along to deny the underdogs an equaliser.
The acrobatic save was a product of Juraj Kucka leaping above his marker, Joshua Kimmich, to get his head on the end of a dangerous cross into the box.
Neuer, however, soared across the goalmouth and confidently deflected the header safely out of bounds.

Things got worse for Slovakia when Germany made it 2-0 less than five minutes later.
