Bayern Munich's record-breaking goalkeeper Manuel Neuer warmed-up for the German giants' Champions League clash at Arsenal on Tuesday with a special four-fingered glove after bruising his hand in training.
.
Neuer wore the special glove in Friday's 2-0 win at VfL Wolfsburg and pulled off a stunning second-half save to halt Brazil midfielder Diego's curling free-kick for the Bundesliga leaders.
.
The Germany shot-stopper wore the glove after hurting his right hand in training on Thursday and will be in the Bayern goal at Arsenal's Emirates Stadium for Tuesday's last 16, first-leg clash, having yet to concede a goal in 2013.
.
Neuer has conceded just seven goals in the German league this season after 22 matches, a Bundesliga record, and is on course to break the league's record for the fewest goals in a season, when Bayern leaked just 21 in the 2007/08 season.
