Barca whip in a cross from deep. Frenkie de Jong expects a defender to clear it so he doesn't commit, and the ball whizzes just past him. A striker would have gambled.

I know it's been this way for all our lifetimes but it's still strange to think Athletic only buy players from the Basque region yet never get relegated and sometimes get into Europe.

It's not like they have every good Basque player either. Just shows the Basque Country would have a decent national team.

Athletic midfielder Dani Garcia slides in on Frenkie de Jong and gets booked.

Cristiano Ronaldo trying without success to spark a late Juventus revival.

He finds Weston McKennie with a cross from the right. The ball eventually breaks for Rodrigo Bentancur, but Uruguayan has his effort blocked.

Inaki Williams has his head in his hands. The Athletic striker controls a poor clearance inside the box but lashes it wide.

A couple of crosses for Barcelona come to nothing. Good Athletic pressing causes Lionel Messi to go backwards when he gets the ball just outside the box.

Lautaro Martinez runs at Giorgio Chiellini, the Italian backs off as he is approached at pace.

The Argentine has the experienced defender backtracking, but can only bend his effort wide from the edge of the area.

The possession stats are 50-50. There was a time Barcelona used to pass opponents to death - but that's a long time ago.

Achraf Hakimi zigs and zags on the rights as he pokes and prods for another Inter chance.

Juventus repel the danger, but it's never really far away at the minute as Nerazzurri go in search of a third. Just 20 minutes remain.

Another Iker Muniain free-kick, similar position, but this time he can't find Raul Garcia.

The goal is disallowed - a huge let-off for Barcelona. Raul Garcia was about an inch offside.

Barcelona 1-2 Athletic Bilbao

There is a VAR check. Was Raul Garcia offside...?

Juventus have had a series of corners in the last few minutes.

While Alvaro Morata and Weston McKennie have got their heads on them, they are yet to find a breakthrough.

Inter at the other end are threatening to add a few more to their lead!

Barca sub Oscar Mingueza spends ages calling for the ball to be switched out to him and then when he gets it, he loses possession and fouls Iker Muniain.

Andrea Pirlo has seen enough. There is little over 30 minutes to salvage something at the San Siro and he makes three changes.

Aaron Ramsey, Gianluca Frabotta and Adrien Rabiot are replaced as Federico Bernardeschi, Weston McKennie and Dejan Kulusevski.

Close from Lionel Messi. He has a shot from this free-kick, almost 30 yards out, and it's just wide of the far post. Unai Simon was rooted to the spot.

Lionel Messi and an Athletic player are both down in a heap after running into each other, free-kick to Barca. No harm done though, they're both fine.

Ambitious as Athletic midfielder Dani Garcia blasts one over the bar from way downtown.

Athletic Bilbao qualified for the Super Cup by reaching the 2019-20 Copa del Rey final against Real Sociedad.

The only thing is that cup final hasn't even been played yet. It's scheduled for April now.
