    FT: Barcelona 3-1 Celta. Full time here at the Camp Nou and the home side take all three points. Aubameyang added to his first half goal just three minutes after the restart, only for Aspas to pull a goal back for the visitors two minutes later. Celta's Murillo then got sent off for taking Memphis out after he went through on goal and that killed the game. Thanks for joining us this evening and see you back here very soon!
  • 103'
    Celta corner.
  • 99'
    De Jong sends a teasing ball across the six yard box but Fati can't quite get a toe on it to send it goalwards.
  • 95'
    Fati has a shot from just outside the box. It's central to the goal so Dituro makes a routine stop.
  • 90'
    11 minutes added here after the lengthy delay due to Araujo's injury.

    Dembele with another burst into the box and ball across to a teammate. This time Fati arrives but stretches slightly when making contact and sends his shot wide.
  • 85'
    De Jong goes close seconds after coming on! A ball is whipped into the box and he glances it towards the back post. The effort goes just wide of the mark.

    Memphis OFF. Fati ON.
  • 62'
    Araujo is down and this does not look good at all. We have a stretcher and an abulance on the field here. He went up for a header and rather than heading the ball, he headed his teammate's (Gavi) skull.

  • 58'
    After only just coming on at half time, Murillo is sent off. Memphis goes clean through and Murillo tries to cover round and takes him out just outside the box in doing so. Clear as day that red card.

    GOOOAAAL TO CELTA!!! Aspas pulls one back! Ter Stegen plays a poor pass to Araujo which catches him out. Galhardo picks up the loose ball and squares it to Aspas who tucks it into the bottom left. Very poor goal to concede from a Barca point of view.

    GOOOOAAAL TO BARCA!!! Auba gets a second! Dembele is allowed far too easily to waltz into the box. He picks his head up and slides it across to Auba who sweeps the ball into the back of the net. Similar goal to Barca's first.
  • 45'
    Kevin OFF. Murillo ON.

  • 45'
    HT: Barcelona 2-0 Celta. Half time here at the Camp Nou and Barca are in the driving seat. After a slow start from both sides, Memphis slotted in the opener on the half hour mark. He has Dembele to thank after some vintage play down the right to set up the goal. Ten minutes later, Auba doubled the home side's advantage. Barca haven't looked totally convincing at the back so there is an opportunity there for Celta should they come out more creatively in the second half.

    1 minute added to the half.

    GOOOAAL TO BARCA!!! Aubameyang with a scruffy one! Memphis hooks a less then convincing pass towards the penalty spot. Celta's Araujo tries to clear the danger, which he should easily, but he falls over and tips the ball to Auba. He then slams it into the ground and past Dituro.
  • 36'
    Great save Ter Stegen! Galhardo takes a shot from just inside the box. It's destined for bottom right but the Barca keeper gets down well and stretches a hand out to make the stop.
  • 33'
    Aspas wins a corner.

    GOOOAAAAL TO BARCA!!! Memphis slots it in! Great work from Dembele. He skips past two challenges and drives down the right in to the box. The Frenchman squares it to Memphis and he passes it first time under the Celta keeper. Lovely goal.
  • 26'
    Not much to report on at the moment, both teams failing to create anything.
  • 17'
    Cervi wins a corner for Celta but complains he was brought down in the box beforehand. No penalty.
  • 14'
    Shocking! Araujo tries to scoop the ball back to his keeper but doesn't realise Aspas is behind him. He fluffs the pass and Aspas runs onto it. Lukily Araujo chases him down just in time to put him off and for Ter Stegen to smother.
  • 11'
    Galhardo goes close after Aspas squares it nicely to him at the back post. Aspas was caught offside in the build up however.
  • 9'
    Mendez has the ball at his feet in the Barca box but Garcia outmuscles him brilliantly and calmly clears the danger.
  • 7'
    Slow start to this one with both teams struggling to keep hold of the ball.

    Celta win the first corner of the match.

    Celta get us underway here!
