Unai Emery said Aston Villa targeted Manuel Neuer’s sweeper-keeper habits after Jhon Durán lobbed the Bayern Munich goalkeeper to record a famous Champions League victory.

Durán, on as a substitute in place of Ollie Watkins, scored a superb late winner to beat the six-time winners by a single goal, a replica of their 1982 European Cup final triumph against the same team in Rotterdam.
