Marc-Andre ter Stegen to start for Germany against Peru

Germany boss Joachim Low has confirmed Marc-Andre ter Stegen will start for Die Mannschaft in Sunday’s international friendly against Peru.

Ter Stegen is very much back-up to Manuel Neuer on the international scene, but he will get a rare chance to impress at Hoffenheim’s Rhein-Neckar-Arena.

Low confirmed the news in his pre-match press conference with Ter Stegen set to make his first appearance for the national team since June when he featured in a friendly against Saudi Arabia.

Ter Stegen has been in brilliant form over the last few seasons and was unlucky not to be Germany’s first choice at the World Cup.
