The two players of the Barça that have said goodbye to the World-wide without having played

The Glass of the World already has reached the instance of quarter-finals, that will be dirimiendo the selections of Low Countries, Argentina, Croatia, Brazil, England, France, Morocco and Portugal. With the recent elimination of Spain in the round of 16, the team that arrived to Qatar with more players of the FC Barcelona has sacked of the appointment. Of the total of culés present in Asia, only two have sacked without having stepped the lawn.

It treats of Eric García and Marc-André Ter Stegen. In the case of the defender, his name formed part of the definite list of summoned of Luis Enrique Martínez, but never arrived to receive an opportunity to see minutes of game in the four commitments contested by 'The Red'. In fact, in his statements during the tournament, the seleccionador had indicated that lamentably there would be players that would remain by out of the eleven, such as it has occurred with the Barcelona head office.

The rest of the members of the staff of Xavi Hernández present in floor catarí for the Glass of the World yes could jump to the field: Jordi Alba, Alejandro Balde, Sergio Busquets, Pablo Martín Páez Gavira 'Gavi', Pedri González and Ansu Fati, being Eric García the only that had to see to his mates from the bench at all times, although perhaps only was question of time to see him debut in a World-wide.

Ter Stegen, once again to the shadow of Neuer

By his part, Marc-André Ter Stegen continues living the same reality in the selection of Germany when keeping on being the substitute of Manuel Neuer. The guardametas Barcelona was in the list of summoned of Joachim Löw in Russia 2018, but always by behind the goalkeeper of the Bayern of Munich. Now, in the middle of the 'earthquake' that crosses the 'Mannschaft' after a new elimination in the first phase, the doors could open for him of face to a new cycle.

Germany has been another of the big disappointments of the Glass of the World. The directed by Hansi Flick were surprised by the Japanese selection in the debut. Later they would obtain a suffered tie in front of 'The Red', whereas the victory by 2-4 in front of his similar of Costa Rica would not be sufficient to do with one of the squares to the eighth of final by a difference of favourable goals to Spain that finished for throwing them of Qatar 2022.
