That save was weird, because "normal" goalkeeper would have tried to deflect it downwards with both hands. But deflecting it up robs other team of chance for rebound.
Yeah but this happened to neuer so far, what, a couple of times in his whole career?
If you calculate how many more chances he prevented from even happening(like against algeria in world cup this year) I think the pros heavily outweigh the cons.
ter Stegen is a sweeper keeper.
He has restrained himself a bit at the start of his Barca career, but he is a sweeper keeper unless the definition of it is Neuer, who has taken sweeping to a complete new level and shouldn't be compared to anyone.
How good was neuer at this stage of his career
