Barcelona goalkeeper Marc-Andre Ter Stegen prepares to make a save from Napoli's Lorenzo Insigne. BERLIN: Barcelona goalkeeper Marc-Andre Ter Stegen has the chance to advance his claim for Germany's Number One shirt when he faces Bayern Munich and their veteran shot-stopper Manuel Neuer in Friday's Champions League quarter-final.AdvertisementHowever, Ter Stegen is itching to usurp him as Germany goalkeeper, but there is not much to separate the pair.

Bayern Munich star Manuel Neuer will go head-to-head with Barcelona shot-stopper Marc-Andre Ter Stegen in Friday's clash of the Germany goalkeepers. Illgner believes Neuer has a more commanding presence"as a boss in his own penalty area". Bayern's outspoken former president Uli Hoeness waded into the ensuing debate saying that Ter Stegen had"no right" to claim the position.

Benedikt Howedes, Neuer's team-mate in Brazil when the Germans won the 2014 World Cup, compares the pair to two giants of the game.In Saturday's last 16 ties, Ter Stegen shaded it as he was only beaten when Napoli's Lorenzo Insigne converted a penalty in Barcelona's 3-1 win.
