Bayern Munich captain Manuel Neuer admits he had a key role in their Champions League win against Arsenal.

Neuer says he was under instructions to play the ball out to beat Arsenal's high press.

The keeper said afterwards: "We are very happy with the semi-final, a real Bayern night at the Allianz Arena.

"We have already seen in London that they pressed high, I had to play the ball and my role was to play it.

"The dream is the final, the important thing is to get there and it doesn't matter against who."
