Mats Hummels saves Dortmund’s skin with incredible save from perfect free kick

Mats Hummels wouldn't be long in hijacking a vine.

There was poor, old Sebastian Rudy, having struck a beauty of a whipping free kick, ready to reel away in celebration.  On another night, in any other stadium, this shot would've curled delicious inside the top left corner. But not tonight.  Not with Mats Hummels around. The Dortmund defender somehow anticipated Rudy's intentions before the shot and dropped back instinctively as if he was controlling himself in a game of FIFA 15.  The anticipation was one thing, the cat-like reflexes were another as he reacted to flick the ball inches off target as Borussia hung on for a priceless 1-0 victory over Hoffenheim to lift themselves off the bottom of the Bundesliga. This is why United are ready to splash the cash to stave off other interested parties in the German.  This is why he is one of the planet's hottest peices of property right now.
