Ter Stegen made more passes than four Barcelona team-mates against Atletico

Barcelona goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen caught the eye again on Sunday against Atletico, as he picked up his 12th La Liga clean sheet of the season.

The German stopper made a fine save to deny Antoine Griezmann an equalizer but also caught the eye with the ball at his feet.

Ter Stegen completed 53 passes during the game, more than four of his outfield team-mates, according to Mundo Deportivo.

The German outpassed Alejandro Balde (46), Gavi (39), Ansu Fati (21) and Ousmane Dembele (30). It also goes without saying he outpassed substitutes Marcos Alonso, Raphinha, Ferran Torres, Franck Kessie and Sergi Roberto.
