Barcelona’s Marc-Andre ter Stegen to stay on Germany bench despite Neuer howler

Marc-Andre ter Stegen is set to stay on the bench for Germany despite current No. 1 Manuel Neuer dropping another clanger on Friday.

Neuer was guilty of a poor mistake that gifted Giorgos Masouras the opening goal in a 2-1 win for Germany ahead of Euro 2024.

However, Julian Nagelsmann was quick to defend his stopper after the final whistle.

“I won’t let any discussion arise, even if everyone tries to start one, Manuel Neuer is and will be our starting goalkeeper,” he told reporters.
