    FT: Dynamo 0-1 Barcelona! Barcelona have clinched another narrow victory against Dynamo and arguably, the hosts may feel aggrieved not to have had at least a share of the spoils here. The visitors will not care how the three points in Group E came about, as the win tonight means they leapfrog Benfica – who they face on Matchday 5 at the Camp Nou, to take second place in the section. Thank you very much and see you next time!

de Barcelona en el 70'
  • 70'
    GOAL for Barca! The visitors have the breakthrough! Mingueza's low cross from the right is deflected into the path of the teenager, who, stationed near the penalty spot, thumps an emphatic right-footed half-volley that leaves Bushchan with no chance.
  • 65'
    Barca sub: Dembele on for Gavi Paez.
  • 64'
    VAR review complete: No penalty
  • 63'
    VAR check in progress. A check is being carried out on the award of the penalty for a foul on Fati by K?dziora.
  • 63'
    The referee points to the spot after the Barcelona teenager is sent tumbling in the box just as he is about to let fly with an effort. The youngster appears in some discomfort.
  • 63'
    Kedziora is penalised for a foul on Fati.
  • 58'
    De Pena and Karavaev link up well on the left in trying to force their way into the Barcelona box. Karavaev picks out the run of Buyalskiy, whose centre is cleared as far as the 29-year-old midfielder on the edge of the area, who sends a powerful, curling right-footed effort just wide of the top right of Ter Stegen's goal.
  • 56'
    Right now, Dembélé is doing the warm-up exercises at the edge of the pitch, which he's not been able or required to do since the Euros
  • 53'
    It’s been a promising start for Dynamo in the second half as they have added even more aggression to their counterattacks. On the other hand, it gives more space to Barcelona and some opportunities to catch their opponents in transition.

    Lenglet is booked for a foul on Tsygankov. Both visiting centre-backs are now on yellow cards – will this spur the hosts on to attack more as the game wears on?

  • 48'
    Sergio Busquets concedes a free-kick for a foul on Garmash
  • 47'

  • 46'
    The second half begins.
  • 45'
    HT: Dynamo 0-0 Barca! No advantage for Barcelona but a confident, sprightly first 45 minute where they've consistently made good chances and, had they played like this in the previous group games, they'd have more than just three points. Quiet, so far, from the returning Frenkie De Jong, and the visitors will want Busquets to impose his class still more.

    Barcelona are unable to clear the corner from the right and it falls nicely for the Uruguayan midfielder, who drills a powerful left-footed effort that the visiting keeper resorts to saving with his legs.
  • 25'
    De Pena has an attempt on goal, but Ter Stegen makes a great save.
  • 25'
    Nico Gonzalez concedes a free-kick for a foul on Tsygankov.
  • 24'
    The hosts' first real opportunity of the match and possibly the best one from either side so far. Tsygankov is sent scampering down the right before picking out the 23-year-old on the edge of the box, who takes a touch but can only miscue his left-footed effort well wide of the goal.
  • 21'
    Buyalskiy is adjudged to be in an offside position.

    Eric Garcia is cautioned by the referee after fouling De Pena.
  • 18'
    All of the Dynamo players are showing great commitment without the ball, their hard work stopping the visitors’ attacks so far. However, the hosts themselves are not looking dangerous up front in these opening stages of the game.
  • 13'
    Garmash is flagged for offside.
  • 11'
    Sergio Busquets recovers in midfield before feeding Jordi Alba out to his left. He plays the ball down the line for Depay, who cuts the ball back to Fati just inside the area. He takes a touch before blasting a low strike, which deflects to safety off Kedziora's legs.

    The visitors begin this encounter and look to pass their way down the pitch, but are crowded out by some lively Dynamo pressing. Barça win back possession and start to build a patient attack, probing down both flanks, but are repelled by a well-drilled Dynamo back line.
