The German shotstopper was the sole bright spot for Barcelona when the visitors went through the motions in the first half. He was on hand to make a string of excellent saves and deserved the clean sheet at least for his stellar showing.

Ter Stegen was a very busy man, regularly called into action as Madrid pushed forward relentlessly. He made four saves in total and also leapt ahead to avert any danger borne aerially. However, his watershed moment was the diving save to deny Reguilon in the second-half.

As the Spanish fullback headed a Vinicius cross goalwards, the German read the flight of the ball well and was quick off his feet to jump to his left, parrying the ball away for a corner.

Had it not been for his crucial interventions, the Blaugrana were sure to have conceded a goal or two. But honestly, he's been doing it since the start of the season and the Spanish champions would worse off without him in the nets.
