Marc-André ter Stegen will not have the opportunity to fight for the Zamora award on the last day of LaLiga. Unai Simón kept a clean sheet against Rayo Vallecano and took the trophy for the first time

Calendar of FC Barcelona

Marc-André ter Stegen had the 'dream' to finish the season like the guardameta less goleado of LaLiga by second consecutive year and although it lost several months of competition by an injury in the back that forced him to go through the operating theatre. It has fit 26 goals in 27 parties and has an average of 0,96 targets against by clash. The last 'bullet' had it against the Seville, but already is an impossible mission.

Unai Simón has carried the trophy after keeping his fence invicta in the victory of the Athletic Club in front of the Ray Vallecano in Vallecas. It contested 60 minutes, as it already had happened in front of the RC Celtic in Balaídos, and topped for the first time like the goalkeeper with better coefficient of goals fit by party, confirming that it is one of the guardametas more important of LaLiga in these last years.

Ter Stegen Will not be able to surpass to Unai Simón

The most surprising, in any case, is that any goalkeeper of the picture bilbaíno had attained to impose with this recognition from 1970, when it did it Iribar. Simón finalises the course with 36 clashes contested with the Athletic in which it fit 33 targets, to register a coefficient of 0,91. Ter Stegen No longer has options to reach it, even if it keeps his goal to zero in the visit of the Barça to Seville of this Sunday, from the 21:00 hours.

The one of Mönchengladbach will sign his split number 28 in LaLiga in this season, the minimum to opt by the recognition, and to date only has fit 26 targets. It carries, in fact, three parties without conceding, against Real Sociedad, Almería and Ray Vallecano. In case that it go back to leave it invicta, would be achieving a coefficient of 0,92, slightly upper to the that has signed the one of Murgia.
