David Moyes is off his seat now. 'Venga chicos!' is maybe the shout?

Luis Enrique is meters away in his own technical area. It was the Barcelona manager's 45th birthday yesterday. A birthday week in which they reach the Champions League final and go five points clear?

That's the gap as it stands, with Real Madrid to play Valencia at 19:00 BST don't forget.

Luis Suarez is beginning to talk to himself. What's he muttering about?

Neymar flashes a header right into the gloves of Geronimo Rulli. Lovely build-up play to create the opening but a weak finish from the Brazilian.

"He's not had to do anything spectacular, but there has been some good alert goalkeeping from Barca's Claudio Bravo this evening. Filling Victor Valdes's shoes - or gloves - was a big task but he has fitted in seamlessly."

From the free-kick Claudio Bravo rises and claims comfortably. Barca back on the attack.

This second wave hasn't arrived yet though, and Sociedad are still well-placed to cause an upset.

Geronimo Rulli! He's out in no man's land trying to see the ball out and Neymar steals it and wins a corner. Neymar, naturally wants it taken quickly and Rulli blocks him. Hence the referee's scribbling.

With the corner cleared well no sooner has Javier Mascherano dropped deeper than he too is booked. A terrible challenge on Carlos Vela, who was streaming down the right wing on the counter.

Another Sociedad free-kick and another offside. Stop being caught offside! The away side had been growing a bit of momentum.

Sergio Busquets comes on for Marc Bartra. Javier Mascherano to drop back into centre-back?

Almost a moment of danger for Barca as Carlos Vela looks to latch on to a through ball but Claudio Bravo is there, quickasaflash off his line to scoop up into his arms. Best opening of the second half so far for the visitors.

"It's already a very different kind of game after the goal - Real Sociedad are committing more men forward, which obviously gives them more chance of scoring but also opens up a lot more space for Barca to exploit. Don't expect it to stay 1-0."

A break in play here as Carlos Martinez gets treatment - replays show he flung himself into a challenge on Neymar and ended up performing some kind of extreme pilates move. Seems OK to carry on though.

"Slightly unlucky for La Real that the header from Mikel Gonzalez fell straight onto Neymar's head, but it was a wonderful cross from Messi and those pinpoint diagonal centres are becoming another of his trademarks. Suarez should have scored from one in the first half and now Neymar has."

What now then David? Moyes's side had defended pretty well but that was poor. Geronimo Rulli, who has had a very decent game so far, was left helpless by his centre-back's mistake.

Barca will only get stronger from here you feel.

Finally the pressure tells for Barcelona. Another Lionel Messi cross into the box is cleared but only as far as the back post, where Neymar was lurking to stab home on his head. And his mohawk? Still immaculate.

What. A. Challenge that is. Inigo Martinez times flies in with a block to deny Luis Suarez, who was winding up for a volley having beaten the offside trap.

Which is cleared before another corner is conceded - Barca's eighth of the game as they build early pressure after the restart.

It's poor though as Neymar skews a shot wide from the edge of the box. His heart wasn't really in that one.

Geronimo Rulli had a decent first half and straight off the bat here he is with another excellent save.

Marc Batra's header is on course for the top corner but Rulli, 22, tips over. Corner...

And we are under way in the second half. No changes from either side. Attendance today is 86,047, Barca say.

Plenty more to come this week on the story of Spanish football being suspended from next weekend (see 16:33).

For now though, the players are back out on the pitch. Kick-off imminent.

Spanish football writer Andy West at the Nou Camp

"Luis Suarez has been pretty quiet so far today, and there must be a temptation for him to play with greater caution than usual because he's one booking from a suspension, so a yellow today would see him miss next weekend's crunch trip to Atletico Madrid.

"If there actually is a crunch trip to Atletico Madrid, that is…"

That reminds me of a previous topic we had for some #bbceurofooty, external chat, Mark - your best five-a-side teams made from Europe's top five leagues.

Naturally Messi featured pretty prominently but can't remember Ronaldo being that popular a choice. Obviously we don't want to kick the hornets nest but surely you'd pick Messi would have the edge over Ronaldo in five-a-side?

Today we'd like to hear your suggestions for how to decide who wins the Spanish league and who goes down, if the remaining fixtures are not played (see 16:33). The more far-fetched the better.

Mark Jefferd: 5-A-side game down the park. Bravo, Xavi, Suarez, Neymar, Messi V Casillas, Modric, Bale, Benzema, Ronaldo. Who would win?

Simon Meredith: How about we put Ronaldo against Messi in a bull race in Pamplona. Whoever wins gets to win La Liga.

Brian Macpherson: Team mascots play the remaining matches on Subbuteo. Five minutes a half, full costumes worn.
