Barca growing back again. The balance turning in their favour. Lionel Messi streams up the pitch, dragging the whole match with him. The move breaks down but then Betis give the ball away in midfield under pressure.

Sergio Busquets finds Messi in space. Back to goal. A quick turn, onto his left foot, and a clean drive finds the outside of the post from range.

Meessiii, Meessii, comes the cries from the stands.

Lucky.... Jordi Alba takes down Matias Nahuel again, cynically dragging him back when the winger was arching into space.

Free-kick says the ref, yes, but that could have been a second yellow...

Someone will have to calm him down. Barca are two goals to the good!

Brazil full-back Dani Alves again finds compatriot Neymar with a cross, and this time the £200m player heads against Toulouse's far-right upright.

This is a good spell for Betis. Barca have actually dropped off a bit and there's space for them to knock the ball about.

Sergio Leon is the target, but a long pass played in at the end of a patient move finds the striker in an offside position.

It's still a long way back for the away side from here.

Victor Camarasa's showed a few nice touches in the Betis midfield. Very efficient with his touch to make space to pass, always with his head up. Can't recall seeing him give the ball away.

Jordi Alba jumps into a rash challenge on Matias Nahuel, it's really late, and gets himself a yellow card.

A rarity. Sergio Busquets' disguised pass is easily picked off in front of the Betis defence.

Gerard Deulofeu has started the second half brightly. He got the assist for Barca's easy second, and it was his cross/shot that was turned in by Alin Tosca.

Here he is in space on the right, with a stepover to work into space, but the cross is blocked.

And we are back under way.

There are 56.480 fans at Camp Nou tonight - well short of the 99,000 capacity.

Neymar should have scored his first PSG goal at home in the 13th minute.

The Brazilian is picked out by compatriot Dani Alves' square pass but fires over the bar from just 12 yards.

The home side have been on top in these opening moments.

There's no Cristiano Ronaldo and no Mateo Kovacic as Gareth Bale starts up top for Real Madrid in La Coruna.

Madrid XI: Navas, Carvajal, Ramos, Nacho, Marcelo, Kroos, Casemiro, Modrid, Isco, Bale, Benzema.

There are three debutants in the Deportivo side. Midfielder Guilherme, defender Fabian Schar, and winger Zakaria Bakkali, on loan from Valencia, all start.

Deportivo XI: Ruben, Juanfran, Schar, Sidnei, Luisinho, Pedro Mosquera, Guilherme, Celso Borges, Fede Cartabia, Bakkali, Andone.

We are under way at the Parc de Princes.

Good luck to Toulouse trying to keep the front three of Neymar, Edinson Cavani and Angel Di Maria at bay.

Prior to kick off there was a minute's silence for the victims of the Barcelona attack.

The camera focused on former Barcelona player Neymar, who looked emotional during the moment.

Quite the end to that half.

Such impressive pace over five yards, Lionel Messi glides a pass into Sergi Roberto and zooms along to get the return, he shapes to shoot but the shot is blocked.

Real Betis are hurting now.

Now the home side slow it up, they're cruising into the dressing room. Or is there time for more?..

My fingers are burning up. Barca really turned on the heat there.

What could Real Betis do? Sergio Leon's chance to score will be a huge turning point...

A Lionel Messi free-kick, central, about 25 yards out. A left foot curler, it's drifting deliciously towards goal.. Sound familiar?

But no! It strikes against the post and out. Adan was soundly beaten too.
