Ghana defender Baba Abdul Rahman put on show one of his best performances for Augsburg as they sensationally defeated Bayern Munich 1-0 in the German Bundesliga on Saturday. 

The 20-year-old managed to stop Bayern's attackers in their tracks and also made great incursions as Bobadilla scored the winner with a clever backheel from a cross by Pierre Hojbjerg, who is on loan from Bayern.

Bayern wrapped up the league title two weeks ago, but have lost all four games since then - including a penalty shootout defeat by Borussia Dortmund in the German Cup semi-final.

Rahman's inspiring performance making 29 Bundesliga appearances for 5th-placed Augsburg has attracted huge interests from stellar European clubs with Chelsea, Manchester City and others mentioned to be interested in signing him.
