Bayern, who had won 33 of their previous 34 games in all competitions, did not get a single shot on target in the entire first half and had to wait until the 50th minute for Douglas Costa to rattle the crossbar with a fierce shot.
Kingsley Coman came to Bayern Munich rescue as they drew Werder Bremen, nodding in at the far post in the 62nd.
The hosts, however, have Neuer to thank for avoiding the second league defeat of the season after he beat Sargent in a one-on-one in the 88th minute.
