Liga: the superb parade of Marc-André ter Stegen which offers victory to Barça

2022-01-03T07:54:29.686Z


Winner in Mallorca (1-0), FC Barcelona is two points off the podium in La Liga. And can say thank you to his German goalkeeper.


He was warmly congratulated by his defenders, including his captain Gerard Piqué.

Because if Barça de Xavi won (1-0) on the lawn of Mallorca on Sunday night in La Liga, he owes it in part to Marc-André ter Stegen.

When the Catalans retreated to their camp to try to keep the three points of the victory in the stoppage of the second half, the German goalkeeper was decisive on a final occasion of the formation of the Balearics.

The 29-year-old delivered an impressive intervention, almost at close range, on a recovery from defender Jaume Costa, alone in the Barcelona area to take a cross from the right.

A reflex parade of the only right arm, in the style of his rival in the national team Manuel Neuer.

Spectacular, and above all decisive.

With this success, also forged by a goal from Dutch center-forward Luuk de Jong (44th), Barça returned to two points off the podium in a Liga still dominated by Real Madrid despite its defeat against Getafe (1-0 ).

"Marc saved us at the end, I'm very happy for him, for Luuk too, they saved us", insisted their coach Xavi at a press conference after the meeting.

Unbeaten in the Spanish league since a home defeat against Betis Sevilla, current third, in early December, the Barcelona seem to be making progress.
