    The referee might as well have just booked Mathieu Flamini in the tunnel. Get it over and done with. The Gunners midfielder barges Andres Iniesta in the back, right under the ref's nose. Asking for trouble.

    Good job Danny Mills (see below) isn't doing the half-time team-talk in the away dressing room...

    But it's hard to disagree. Barca call David Ospina into action again, the Arsenal keeper dropping low to left to clutch Neymar's drilled shot.

    "It is now exhibition stuff. Barcelona have such confidence, they are 3-0 up and no chance they are going to lose this tie."

    Incredible. 

    What a run from Alvaro Morata!

    The Juve striker sashays between three or four retreating Bayern defenders and finds the supporting Juan Cuadrado. The former Chelsea man still has a lot to do, goes outside a couple red-shirted ghosts and beats Manuel Neuer at the near post. 

    Juventus, remember, are without four key players.

    Arsenal struggling to lay a glove on Barcelona now. Ivan Rakitic has a 20-yard shot blocked, then Jordi Alba wins a corner after a 'megs' on Hector Bellerin...

    Barcelona 1-0 Arsenal (agg 3-0)

    There's some suggestion that Luis Suarez might have strayed offside before slipping the ball through to Neymar for Barca's opener. Once we have another glimpse at that replay, we'll make a decision on whether he was offside or not. In the meantime we'll sit on the fence...

    Before the match, Juventus coach Massimiliano Allegri asked for perfection from his team and, so far, he's getting it. The Italians have been exceptional in these opening 20 minutes, pressing high and showing adventure. 

    The visitors get the ball in the net once again but the offside flag comes to Manuel Neuer's rescue. The Bayern goalkeeper looks uncharacteristically flustered. 

    Pep Guardiola's men are rattled.

    Let's see what Arsenal are made of...

    The Gunners burst down the left through Nacho Monreal as they look to hit back almost instantly. His low cross is cut out. The ball falls to Alex Iwobi, but his clever flick is not too clever and goes out for a Barca goal-kick...

    "All bets are off, that's it. All hope is now gone.

    "What was Laurent Koscielny doing? He ran out from the back and tried to take on two or three players. Barcelona were always going to get he ball back. The chance was gifted to them."

    "That is criminal, you can't do that against Barcelona. He has cost his side any hope of going through."

    Loveof Football: Koscielny has never been the most intelligent defender what was he doing coming that far out with the ball then losing it?

    Lethal. A sloppy pass out of defence by Arsenal is snaffled by Barcelona quicker than a hungry wolf. Luis Suarez slides in Neymar who takes a neat touch on the edge of the penalty area, before tucking low inside the near post from 12 yards.

    Barca boss Luis Enrique grins like a man who knows his team are cruising into the last eight...

    Lionel Messi 0 David Ospina 1.

    Stunning reflex save from the Arsenal keeper who stands tall before pushing Messi's six-yard shot over his bar.

    Messi had brought a lofted pass down with the outside of his left boot. Superb skill.

    Another half chance for Arsenal, whose policy appears to be shoot on sight. Not a bad one in these wet conditions. 

    "Test the keeper!" I'd imagine featured heavily in Wenger's team-talk. Mohamed Elneny lashes one just past the post from 25 yards. Then Barca attack...

    A fabulous atmosphere in Munich. Decibels have certainly risen inside the ground. 

    Bayern, as you'd expect from the team with the highest possession stats in the competition, are spraying the ball around nicely.

    Franck Ribery went wide with a volley but the home side's back four still looks rather shaky.

    The thing with Barcelona is that they never look unruffled, even when they shank a pass in their own penalty area. Keeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen gets his feet in a muddle as Danny Welbeck closes him down. Press the panic button? No chance. The German passes out to centre-back Jeremy Mathieu, who plays a first-time ball to Jordi Alba. Cool as a cucumber.

    "Mesut Ozil did really well, he nicked the ball originally but then hit it too well. He didn't get enough bend on it.

    "It's a chance for Arsenal though."

    Oooof! Arsenal on the attack again, pouring forward when Andres Iniesta misplaces a pass. Mesut Ozil drives forward, no Barca challenge is forthcoming, allowing the ex-Real Madrid man to bend just past the far post. 

    A huge 'oooooh' can be heard from the travelling Gunners fans up in the Nou Camp gods. Close but not close enough.

    How late is this offside flag! Luis Suarez is just the three yards off as he races onto a threaded Lionel Messi pass, but the linesman only decides to waft his flag when the Barca striker squares into the Arsenal six-yard area. The Gunners managed to clear anyway.

    "A lively start from both sides. When Barcelona get the ball, the front three of Lionel Messi, Neymar and Luis Suarez are obviously dangerous.

    "Alexis Sanchez is trying to get forward at every opportunity but I cannot see Barcelona not scoring."
