Events
Match Events
- 0' KICK OFF: FC Barcelona gets underway.
- 5' 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 Jules Kounde suffering a number of foals already.
- 10' It looks surprising Deportivo Alaves does not make any changes. Abde Rebbach has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 15' Deportivo Alaves started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 15.
- 20' FC Barcelona looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 2 matches with its main striker scoring 0 goals.
- 25' It’s high time Quique Flores made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 30' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.

- 40' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 40 minutes.
- 45' Deportivo Alaves is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 46' Goal! Ibrahim Diabate scores his 2 goal in 228 matches.
- 46' That looks like a foul for a card for Marcus Rashford.
- 51' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 56' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Deportivo Alaves needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 61' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 2 times this season with FC Barcelona winning 50% of all matches.
- 62' Ferran Torres has so much to prove this time. He replaces Roony Bardagji on 62 minute.

- 79' Joao Cancelo is replacing Alex Balde for the FC Barcelona side.
- 80' Deportivo Alaves manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Carlos Benavidez is hanging Victor Parada on the field on 80 minute.
