Events

Match Events

  • 0' We are underway at Olimpic Lluis Companys. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
  • 3' Frenkie de Jong doubles the advantage! 1-0 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
  • 8' Ferran Torres does the damage! The net is bulging and FC Barcelona surge ahead!
  • 13' FC Barcelona started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 13.
  • 14' Goal! Raphinha scores his 84 goal in 505 matches.
  • 19' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.
  • 24' Fermin Lopez does the damage! The net is bulging and FC Barcelona surge ahead!
  • 29' Gaya is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for Valencia CF so far.
  • 33' That looks like a foul for a card for Wojciech Szczesny.
  • 38' It’s high time Hansi Flick made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 43' FC Barcelona are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined Valencia CF backline.
  • 48' It looks like no one’s ball. Valencia CF is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 49' Fermin Lopez adds to his 0 season tally! FC Barcelona lead 5-0 — and this changes everything.
  • 54' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both FC Barcelona and Valencia CF are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
  • 59' Hugo Duro has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 59 minutes.
  • 60' Fresh legs for FC Barcelona! Robert Lewandowski comes on to replace Raphinha.
  • 65' 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 Giorgi Mamardashvili suffering a number of foals already.
  • 66' Assisted by Fermin Lopez with the perfectly-timed delivery and Robert Lewandowski makes no mistake. 6-1!
  • 71' The FC Barcelona bench stirs into life. Lamine Yamal is withdrawn and Pau Victor Delgado gets his opportunity.
  • 75' What a moment for Cesar Tarrega! That strike on 75 puts his side firmly in control.
  • 80' Iker Cordoba is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Valencia CF tonight.
  • 82' Valencia CF ring the changes. Yarek Gasiorowski has done his job and it is now time for Iker Cordoba to step up.
  • 83' A change in the Valencia CF ranks — Dimitri Foulquier exits the field as Mouctar Diakhaby enters on 83.
  • 88' The 22-year-old Alex Balde has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
  • The referee blows the final whistle. Sensational lose for Valencia CF.
