Ter Stegen was in impressive form for the Catalans, making crucial saves during the game and saving two penalties in the shoot-out.

Ansu spoke about the German stopper and the game in general after the win.

“He’s a crack, he has shown it in this game again and I’m happy for him,” he said.

“It’s football, we have to be prepared for all situations, the opponent are also playing and Betis are a great team. We always have to be one hundred percent because if not, you see what happens.

“It was a difficult game, Betis are a great team and in the end we have won on penalties. The important thing is that we are in the final.”

Ter Stegen certainly caught the eye but so too did Fati. The youngster struck a brilliant goal to make it 2-1 in extra-time which will raise hopes he can rediscover his best form.

Meanwhile…

Ronaldinho’s son João de Assis Moreira is reportedly having a trial with Barcelona’s Under-19 team.

The teenager is said to have left Brazilian side Cruzeiro early and is now getting a chance to impress with the Catalan giants.

Diario Sport and ESPN are both reporting that the youngster will play with Barca’s Juvenil A side and, if he can impress, then there’s a chance he could be able to continue with the club.

President Joan Laporta seems to be involved in the trial, although Sport are adamant that any decision on whether Ronaldinho Jr stays will be made by the club’s coaches.
