150 clean sheets for Ter Stegen at FC Barcelona

After not conceding against Elche on Saturday, the German keeper reaches a landmark figure following his arrival in 2014

One more for the list for Marc ter Stegen after the German keeper once again kept a clean sheet in Sunday's 4-0 win away at Elche in La Liga. That was the 150th game in which the Barça shot stopper had not conceded in a blaugrana shirt. 

Ter Stegen's development 

The figure just show how important the man from Mönchengladbach has been since arriving at Barça. In his early days he had to share goalkeeping duties with the more experienced Claudio Bravo, keeping 18 clean sheets in his first two seasons between 2014 and 2016. 

After becoming undisputed number 1 in the 2015/16 campaign and the following season he recorded 17 clean sheets. In 2017/18 that figure rose to 24 and he almost maintained that impressive level in 2018/19, not conceding in a total of 23 games. 

In 2019/20 he managed to keep the opposition at bay in 17 matches, with 14 the following season in last year, 2021/22 he managed a total of 15. In the current campaign the German has already recorded a stunning total of 22 clean sheets in 38 matches in all competitions with still a possible 13 games still to play. 150 is the current total but it is sure to be more come the end of the season.
