Events
Match Events
- 0' In just a few seconds Camp Nou will turn into a battlefield for FC Barcelona and RC Celta de Vigo.
- 5' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
- 10' 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 Joao Cancelo suffering a number of foals already.
- 15' The travelling RC Celta de Vigo supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 20' 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.
- 23' Another change for FC Barcelona made on 23 minute. Joao Cancelo leaves to be changed by Alex Balde.
- 28' RC Celta de Vigo 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.
- 33' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 33 minutes.
- 38' It’s high time Claudio made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 40' FC Barcelona is taking the lead after the goal scored by Lamine Yamal on 40.

- 59' A meaty challenge results in booking for Yoel Lago on 59.
- 63' Time for substitution for RC Celta de Vigo. Hugo Alvarez is replaced by Williot Swedberg.
- 68' It looks like no one’s ball. RC Celta de Vigo is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
