Events
Match Events
- 0' We are underway at Camp Nou. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
- 5' The travelling Atalanta BC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 10' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Juan Cuadrado made 519 appearances and scored 16 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 15' Atalanta BC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 15.
- 20' It’s high time Hansi Flick made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 25' 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 Raoul Bellanova suffering a number of foals already.
- 30' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering FC Barcelona that had 513 games and scored 767 goals.
- 35' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 40' Berat Djimsiti needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
- 45' FC Barcelona seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
- 47' Goal! Lamine Yamal scores his 23 goal in 513 matches.
- 51' Sead Kolasinac is having his name booked by the referee on 51.
- 55' Giorgio Scalvini has so much to prove this time. He replaces Sead Kolasinac on 55 minute.
- 60' FC Barcelona is showing some good football. However, FC Barcelona are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 65' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 65 minutes.
- 67' Goal! Ederson scores his 15 goal in 250 matches.
- 69' Fermin Lopez has so much to prove this time. He replaces Pablo Gavira on 69 minute.
- 72' Goal! Ronald Araujo scores his 11 goal in 513 matches.
- 76' The Atalanta BC manager makes a substitution. Davide Zappacosta departs to be replaced by Matteo Ruggeri.
- 77' Nicolo Zaniolo has so much to prove this time. He replaces Mateo Retegui on 77 minute.
- 79' What an equalizer from Mario Pasalic!
- 80' Marc Casado is replacing Pedri for the FC Barcelona side.
- 85' It looks surprising Atalanta BC does not make any changes. Pedri has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 87' Marco Brescianini has so much to prove this time. He replaces Charles De Ketelaere on 87 minute.
- 90' It’s a booking for Atalanta BC player. Marten de Roon gets a card.
- 90' The whistle greets Lamine Yamal as he departs to be replaced by Pau Victor Delgado.
- The final whistle. It looks like we are having a draw.
