Ter Stegen the real hero for Barca

BARCELONA, Spain -- Football is a team game and as Barcelona approach their fourth Champions League Final in nine years after a 5-3 aggregate win over Bayern Munich, now is not the time to suggest that only one man put them there.

The massive firework display that erupted over the city of Barcelona on Tuesday night was for "getting there" and also, if the emotions of those who partied long into the night could be canvassed, for the "tridente" of Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez and Neymar whose flicks, assists and goals will win most of attention.

They will certainly dominate the most of the world's front and back pages as newspapers bring the joyous news of this semifinal of gargantuan proportions.
