Seth Gogo Egoeh: So in the eye of this referee Pique is a goalkeeper? That's a clear penalty. If his arm didn't block it, it was a goal. Simple

The rules say the handball has to be intentional. He had his arm in by his chest, I'm not sure what else he could have done.

Djibril Sidibe makes a promising break down the left for Lille, and is halted by a very late challenge from PSG right-back Serge Aurier, who is rightly booked. Sidibe gets to his feet after treatment, and Lille have a free-kick...

Over at the Stade de France, the Coupe de la Ligue final has settled down after Paris St-Germain's early flurry of pressure. Zlatan Ibrahimovic's attempt to make a run in behind Lille's defence is thwarted by an offside flag. He shoots a look of disdain towards the referee's assistant.

Oh hello. Sporting Gijon should be going in at half-time level as they waste a couple of opportunities. Claudio Bravo saves one effort and then Javier Mascherano clears it off the line. Gerard Pique then blocks another shot on the line - with his arm. Short of removing his arm though, I'm not sure he could have done anything about it.

And now it's half-time.

Better stuff in the last five minutes from Lille, who have taken the pressure off their defence by winning a couple of corners and a free-kick. Their set-piece delivery is poor, though; Sofiane Boufal scuffs a free-kick into the penalty area and, even though Lucas Moura slices his attempted clearance, the ball runs through to Salvatore Sirigu in PSG's goal.

Another chance for Neymar, another moment of hesitation costing him a goal. He's played through on goal but takes a while deciding what to do and his shot is easily saved by Ivan Cuellar.

Barcelona striker Neymar has only scored one goal in his last six games. And his shaky confidence shows here.

He gets the ball in the box and has about five windows to shoot but keeps dancing around defenders while keeping hold of the ball. Eventually he gives it to Luis Suarez, whose shot is deflected over.

Less than five minutes left of the first half.

It's now three saves in the opening six minutes for Lille keeper Vincent Enyeama. Not a difficult one this, as Lucas Moura steers a shot straight at him from the left edge of the penalty area, but Lille are not doing enough to stop Paris St-Germain creating chances here.

Sunday Adekanmi: Barcelona can win the title. I know through their convincing style of play the title is theirs.

Paris St-Germain are in the ascendancy early in this Coupe de la Ligue final. Lucas Moura, selected ahead of Edinson Cavani tonight, cuts in from the left and lets a bouncing shot go from around 25 yards. Vincent Enyeama, a fine keeper, gathers comfortably.

Sporting Gijon, Luis Enrique's hometown club, aren't just sitting back and Alex Menendez throws himself at a cross but can only put it over for a goal-kick.

Atletico Madrid boss Diego Simeone: “We struggled at the start and the entrance of Angel Correa shook the team up.

“The win allows us to stay in this race until the end of the league. We don’t change the planned goal: we focus on the next match."  

Paris St-Germain all in navy, Lille all in white. Angel di Maria has a great chance in the opening seconds as Zlatan Ibrahimovic tees him up eight yards from goal. It's not a clean connection from the Argentina international, and Vincent Enyeama is relieved to make the save.

The players at the Stade de France walk out to Prince's 1999 - a nice tribute to the pop genius, who died on Thursday. We're just about ready to go here. Sue me if I go too fast.

Sergi Roberto - playing at right-back with Dani Alves on the bench - has a go from the corner of the box but his effort curls away from the goal.

Worth noting that Roberto, more of a versatile midfielder, has been preferred to Aleix Vidal - signed in the summer as the successor to Alves.

A quiet spell in the game. We're 25 minutes in and Barcelona look in control.

Alen Halilovic makes a chance out of nothing for Sporting Gijon. the teenage playmaker on loan from Barcelona has a crack from 25 yards out, which hits off Jordi Alba and goes out for a corner.

Lille have won six games in a row, so could be in the mood to cause PSG a few problems tonight. Goalkeeper Vincent Enyeama is a familiar face, having played at three World Cups for Nigeria, while West Brom and West Ham fans will know all about Morgan Amalfitano. Striker Eder is on loan from Swansea.

Lille: Enyeama; Corchia, Soumaoro, Basa, Sidibe; Mavuba, Amadou, Obbadi; Amalfitano, Eder, Boufal.
