Concedes one in draw Neuer conceded one goal and made two saves during Sunday's 1-1 draw with Spain.
Impact Neuer had the help of a better defensive showing but was beaten by Alvaro Morata on a classic team-goal from the Spanish. He also had to withstand a few long-shots that were narrowly wide so all was not perfect for Neuer in Sunday's game. He'll have even less work to do in the finale against Costa Rica but that means Neuer will have to be even more careful to give his team a chance of advancing.
