    GOAL - Getafe 1-1 Barcelonapublished at 61 mins

    Denis Suarez

    Barca back in it.

    Commentator's curse, having said Getafe were holding firm.

    The goal is made by Sergi Roberto, who shows technique and tenacity down the right before cutting the ball back into the box for Denis Suarez.

    The sub takes a touch and clips a lovely finish high into the net past the Getafe goalkeeper.

    Finesse rather than power, beautiful.

    Barcelona are pushing Getafe back deeper into their own half, but the home side are holding tight so far.

    Half an hour remaining.

  5. YELLOW CARDpublished at 53 mins

    Getafe 1-0 Barcelona

    Gerard Deulofeu into the book for a high challenge on Mauro Arambarri.

    Bit like the Sadio Mane challenge on Ederson.

    Should it have been red?

    Getafe 1-0 Barcelona

    Ah man, shame to see Gaku Shibasaki hobbling off injured.

    The Japanese midfielder scored an absolute stunner but cannot continue.

  7. Postpublished at 51 mins

    Getafe 1-0 Barcelona

    To be fair, Denis Suarez has made an impact on the game.

    He drops a ball onto the left foot of Lionel Messi in the area, but the Barcelona man is snuffed out.

    Barca looking better already.

    Getafe 1-0 Barcelona

    Barcelona's Luis Suarez and Denis Suarez but against Getafe's Damian Suarez.

    A Suarez-fest.

  9. Postpublished at 49 mins

    Getafe 1-0 Barcelona

    The challenge was by Cala on Denis Suarez. The Getafe defender did clip him outside the box, but Suarez decided to take a step before going down in rather comical fashion.

    Hilarious.

    Getafe 1-0 Barcelona

    Barca sub Denis Suarez straight into the action as he is down in the area as he thinks he has been tripped by a Getafe defender, but the referee tells him to get on with it.

    Suarez is not happy.

  11. KICK-OFFpublished at 46 mins

    Getafe 1-0 Barcelona

    Managed to put a pic of Pamela Anderson in the live, I think that's a department first.

    Back under way at the Coliseum, where Barcelona are in for a fight.

  12. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 16:17 British Summer Time 16 September 2017

    Injury? Tactical??

    Andres Iniesta has been hooked and replaced by Denis Suarez.

    The third Suarez now on the pitch. Great!

    This week, Mina, James, Julien and Rafa discuss defeats for Bayern, Milan and Monaco, ask if Carlo Ancelotti really is a good manager and find out which player Pamela Anderson is dating.

    All that plus Dybala, Real Sociedad and parking problems.

    Who saw this coming?

  16. GREAT SAVE!published at 45+2 mins

    Getafe 1-0 Barcelona

    What a save!

    Lionel Messi strikes a free-kick from 30+ yards out which is arrowing towards the top corner, but Vicente Guaita dives high to his right to push the ball to safety.

  17. CLOSE!published at 44 mins

    Getafe 1-0 Barcelona

    What is going on with Barca??

    Getafe almost doubled their lead as Faycal Fajr smacks an effort from inside the area which rises inches over Marc-Andre ter Stegen's crossbar.

    That would have broken the net if it went in.

    Luis Suarez in at the back post...

    ...but the Barcelona man has the ball nicked off his head as he is about to head it in.

    GOAL - Getafe 1-0 Barcelonapublished at 39 mins

    Gaku Shibasaki

    Deserved...and what a strike.

    Barcelona have not got going today and get punished by a thunderbolt.

    Full-back Damian Suarez plays a ball onto the edge of the box for Markel Bergara, who holds off Gerard Pique and chests the ball down towards Gaku Sibasaki.

    The Japanese midfielder steams in and takes a left-footed shot full on the volley, which flies high into the net past the diving Marc-Andre ter Stegen. He had no chance.

    Hammered home. What a finish and work to do for Barca.

    Getafe 0-0 Barcelona

    Oof, have some of that.

    Getafe defender Cala comes right through the back of Lionel Messi, sending the Barcelona man flying into the air.

    The referee awards the home player a yellow card as Messi drops back down to Earth.
