Events
Match Events
- 0' We are underway at Camp Nou. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
- 5' With 0 assists to his name this season, Viktor Tsyhankov is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Girona FC.
- 10' Ronald Araujo is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for FC Barcelona so far.
- 15' Both keepers have barely been tested. FC Barcelona and Girona FC are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
- 20' It looks like no one’s ball. Girona FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 25' It’s high time Michel made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 30' Toni Villa has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 32' Girona FC player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
- 37' 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.
- 42' 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 Raphinha suffering a number of foals already.
- 46' FC Barcelona make a change. Sergi Roberto trudges off to be replaced by Franck Kessie on 46 minutes.
- 51' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
- 56' A quiet spell here at Camp Nou. Girona FC seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
- 60' Cristhian Stuani is ready to make an impact after coming on for Valentin Castellanos at the 60 minute mark.
- 61' Yan Couto is ready to make an impact after coming on for Toni Villa at the 61 minute mark.
- 66' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
- 68' Ferran Torres gets the nod from FC Barcelona. He replaces Ansu Fati and will look to change the dynamic.
- 71' Girona FC ring the changes. Viktor Tsyhankov has done his job and it is now time for Rodrigo Riquelme to step up.
- 75' Jordi Alba has so much to prove this time. He replaces Raphinha on 75 minute.
- 77' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Cristhian Stuani.
- 82' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
- 84' Another change for Girona FC made on 84 minute. Ivan Martin leaves to be changed by Valery.
- 89' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
- will have plenty to reflect on. were simply the better side today.
