Events
Match Events
- 0' What a night it is going to be! Deportivo Alaves welcome FC Barcelona for this crunch clash at Mendizorroza.
- 5' named a 4-2-3-1 earlier, and opted for a 4-3-3 in response. A fascinating tactical duel is developing.
- 10' FC Barcelona is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 12' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Samu Omorodion.
- 17' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 22' A goal from the Poland international Robert Lewandowski! He fires home on 22 to make it 0-1!
- 27' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Jon Guridi suffering a number of foals already.
- 32' A quiet spell here at Mendizorroza. Deportivo Alaves seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
- 37' FC Barcelona come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
- 42' FC Barcelona started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 42.
- 46' FC Barcelona make a change. Joao Cancelo trudges off to be replaced by Hector Fort on 46 minutes.
- 49' The Germany Ilkay Gundogan breaks the deadlock on 49 minutes. 0-2!
- 51' Samu Omorodion makes no mistake. The score reads 1-2 and Deportivo Alaves are in front.

- 59' A change in the FC Barcelona ranks — Ilkay Gundogan exits the field as Vitor Roque enters on 59.
- 63' The deadlock is broken! Vitor Roque gets on the scoresheet on 63 minutes.
- 63' Time for substitution for Deportivo Alaves. Luis Rioja is replaced by Abde Rebbach.
- 67' Vitor Roque was booked on 67.
- 72' A moment of madness from Vitor Roque on 72 minutes earns him a Red card. FC Barcelona will be frustrated.
- 75' Fresh legs for FC Barcelona! Fermin Lopez comes on to replace Pedri.
- 77' Carlos Benavidez has so much to prove this time. He replaces Antonio Blanco on 77 minute.
