    What a post-mortem this will be among the Barcelona chiefs.

    Yes, they did win the title but there are so many questions to be asked following 'that' Champions League semi-final display and this performance in the Copa del Rey final.

    As for Valencia, congratulations.

    Coach Marcelino García Toral had not won any of the previous 20 encounters against Barca, and now he has.

    Thanks for reading.

    Three to go.

    It's another corner for Barcelona. However, Valencia nullify the aerial threat of Gerard Pique.

    Meanwhile, Francis Coquelin - remember him Arsenal fans? - makes a brilliant clean tackle on Lionel Messi.

    Valencia now have a corner at the other end.

    Lionel Messi (74 mins)

    Game.

    On.

    Lionel Messi taps in from close range after Gerard Pique's header, from a right-wing corner, is saved low down, one-handed, by Jaume Domenech.

    Sixteen plus stoppage to go.

    What have you got Valencia?

    Barcelona 0-2 Valencia

    Gerard Pique, who for some reason is in the opposition area, hits a first-time effort from Malcom's pass that flashes past Jaume Domenech's left-hand upright.

    Rodrigo gets shown a yellow after stepping on Gerard Pique's ankle, without permission.

    Barcelona 0-2 Valencia

    The quiet Philippe Coutinho, who we are led to believe is still on the pitch, launches a shot from the left that keeper Jaume Domenech pats down.

    There was very much a, "is that all you've got?" that was emitted from Domenech's head.

  18. ouch!

    Feel slightly bad about the last entry.

    When Parejo slipped he seemed to hurt himself.

    Er... now he's been taken off and replaced by Geoffrey Kondogbia.

    The card is already in the post Dani.

    Dani Parejo steps up.

    He looks focused.

    He runs towards the ball.

    He slips a little.

    And fires the free-kick high and wide of Jasper Cillessen's goal.

    Ten out of 10 for intent.

  20. YELLOW CARDpublished at 21:20 British Summer Time 25 May 2019

    Barcelona 0-2 Valencia

    The whistles from the Barcelona fans inside Estadio Benito Villamarin are getting louder.

    They've just shown a shot of injured Barca man Luis Suarez in the crowd, who appears to be wearing his cap back to front.

    Thoughts?

    Anyway, Sergio Busquets concedes a free-kick in a dangerous position after bringing down Rodrigo. Yellow for that.
