Manuel Neuer urges Bayern Munich not to focus on their semi-final performance as Borussia Dortmund pose a different challenge.

Bayern Munich goalkeeper Manuel Neuer has warned his teammates of the threat posed by Borussia Dortmund in the upcoming Champions League final.

The two sides clash at Wembley on May 25, Bayern after seeing off Barcelona 7-0 and Dortmund by edging past Real Madrid 4-3.

Neuer, however, said that the semi-final results will not matter on the day and that it will just be a battle between two evenly-matched teams.

"In Barcelona we won 3-0, which is something not many teams have managed," Neuer told the club's official website. "That was an exceptional result and one we did not expect at all. Now we want to go the last step.

"The football world was impressed by our performance, but Dortmund were not intimidated last weekend.

"One thing is certain - it will be a duel between two even sides. Dortmund are a great team but we are confident enough and know that if we play to our best then we will win the Champions League."

Dortmund and Bayern drew 1-1 in the league last Saturday.
