    Stunning header by Rashford to score for Barca. The power he generated was unreal.

    I'm expecting Newcastle to defend that so much better.

    Jules Kounde goes round the outside and puts it in. He jus swings his left foot and Rashford comes from the edge of the box and glances it past the keeper. The keeper has no chance.

    It was far too simple.

    Newcastle really need to not concede another here. Marcus Rashford picks out Fermin Lopez, whose effort is deflected wide by Fabian Schar.

    This guy just waits for opportunities. It's a great little flick from Phil Foden.

    Erling Haaland knows where the goal is. He dinks it over the goalkeeper, so calm and collected.

    Deadlock finally broken.

    And of course, it had to be Erling Haaland.

    The Norwegian continues his incredible goalscoring record, netting his 50th Champions League goal in just 49 games.

    He is the quickest player to reach that milestone.

    Marcus Rashford (58 mins)

    Marcus Rashford scores on his return to England. His first goal for Barcelona.

    The forward, on loan from Manchester United, powers in a header from Jules Kounde's cross.

    Fabian Schar couldn't get close enough to him.

    Erling Haaland

    And there it is...

    Erling Haaland becomes the quickest player in Champions League history to hit 50 goals in the competition in what is his 49th appearance.

    It's a lovely header over the goalkeeper after a great pass from Phil Foden.

    As the ball hits the back of the net, you can hear the relief all around the Etihad.

    Sandro Tonali tried to strike that into the top corner but he hit it too straight, too cleanly right at the keeper.

    Man City 0-0 Napoli

    We've just seen Pep Guardiola gesture to City fans to turn up the volume. Meanwhile, Napoli have sent on Juan Jesus for Matteo Politano, who was booked a few minutes earlier.

    Toon midfielder Sandro Tonali's effort from 20 yards out is easily saved by Joan Garcia.

    Man City 0-0 Napoli

    This will be one of the greatest points in Napoli's history if they stop City from scoring. Antonio Conte's side are putting on a defensive masterclass as it stands.

    Fabian Schar is OK. He's just waiting 30 seconds until he's allowed to be back on because of rules.

    Barcelona attack. Robert Lewandowski is tackled by Tino Livramento and Marcus Rashford takes a powerful shot which hits the head of Fabian Schar and goes out for a corner. Schar needs treatment.

    Great feet by Phil Foden who fizzes it across the six-yard area but Napoli survive. Pep Guardiola plants both hands into his face in frustration.

    Now Tijjani Reijnders wins his side a corner.

    The City player turns to the crowd and gestures to them to raise the noise.

    Joelinton and Barnes inaccurate tonight with their crosses and passes, need to improve. Elanga has been excellent with his pace, crosses and availability in the box (though not picked out by his teammates). Newcastle have been better than Barca and missed several brilliant chances. Hope they get their win here, but could come to regret the misses. Might be interesting to see Woltemade against this defence.
