Barca’s keeper outwits opposition striker…at the corner flag (Video)

He's got skills...

Move over Manuel Neuer, there’s a new showman in town.

Clearly bored of his Barcelona teammates monopolising possession against BATE Borisov in their Group E Champions League clash, goalkeeper Ter Stegen decided to go for a wander mid-game.

He found himself at the corner flag with opposition forward Dzmitry Mazalewski desperate to steal possession and aim a shot at the vacated Barca goal.

Sadly for the Belarusian, he hadn’t accounted for Stegen’s cool head and quick feet. The German keeper held off the challenge, looked up for a teammate and played it out of defence.

Easy this footballing lark…
