At the beginning of the season, Marc-André Ter Stegen was very questioned by all and sundry. The guardameta did not generate the confidence of before, and his performances were criticised party after party. However, afterwards the arrival of Xavi and the good series lived by the FC Barcelona, the German recovered his best state of form and went back to be fundamental for the culés, that seemed to have 'enderezado' his way. Now, even in the bad moment of the club after the defeats in front of the Eintracht and Cádiz, the Teutonic keeps on being of the most stood out of the team.

And it is that in front of the Real Sociedad the goalkeeper went back to be decisive. The Catalans played a 'final' in front of the donostiarras, and in spite of that it was not a good party for the blaugranas, these attained to achieve the victory and the 3 points. In this triumph, Ter Stegen has a lot of fault, since it left a pair of cut across that avoided to the ones of San Sebastián celebrate a so much that would have meant the tie. The German showed sure under the three sticks, and his presence was the reason by which the 'txuri-urdin' went out with the empty hands of his stadium.

In the first part found face to face with Alexander Isak, but the goalkeeper baled out well the space, forcing to the Swedish to cross the shot that finished going by a side of the goal. Likewise, in the second half confronted face to face with Alexander Sorloth, and 'dressed' of 'hero' in a duel of the cual went out victorious when attaining divert with the 'just' his shot, that brushed in the heel of the guardameta. Finally, it answered of good way to a centre-kick of Januzaj that could have it taken desprevenido.

It is a leader, dominates with the feet, for me is one of the best goalkeepers of the world", went the words of the trainer of Terrassa to his goalkeeper. The guardameta is 'indisputable' so much for the Barça as for the egarense, that considers it a key piece in his project, and his last presentations do not do more than reaffirming it in the arch.

It was 'white' of the terracing

Further of his big performance, Ter Stegen also was protagonist of one of the moments 'controversial' of the meeting. When beginning the second part, the referee of the meeting, Carlos Of the Big Hill, had to detain the clock by some minutes because of an irregular situation with the terracing. Because of the tension lived by the 'siege' of the Real to the Barcelona, varied inflate donostiarras began to launch objects to the terrain of game. Fortunately any of these hit to the put germano, that saw like the fanatical downloaded his fury with him. In spite of this, the situation 'normalised' and the crash continued without problems.
