The same critics also called for him to step down as Germany&#8217;s first-choice goalkeeper. For him to answer such scepticism in style will have been highly satisfying.<\/p>\n<p>Neuer played a pivotal role in the Bavarians&#8217; climb back to European football&#8217;s top step; his leadership shone through and when called upon, he rolled back the years.
