BARCELONA (Reuters) - Barcelona goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen took on Bayern Munich's Manuel Neuer in a public spat last year over the Germany goalkeeper's jersey and the confrontation will be played out on the pitch in Friday's Champions League quarter-final.

Only Lionel Messi can rival Ter Stegen, 28, for the title of Barca's most decisive player in the last few seasons, but his heroics for his club have not been enough to overhaul Neuer, 34, on the international stage.

Ter Stegen finally snapped in September after sitting on the bench against Northern Ireland and the Netherlands, saying:"Not playing was a tough blow and it's not easy to find an explanation." Despite a couple of high profile errors, Neuer is fresh from leading Bayern to a league and cup double and remains convinced he is the best in his position in the game despite his age.
