    Barcelona 2-1 Athletic Bilbao

    Athletic Bilbao did score an injury-time equaliser against Barca two weeks ago in the Super Cup.

    Barcelona 2-1 Athletic Bilbao

    Raul Garcia rifles a shot just over from the edge of the box. It must have been deflected because it results in a corner, which comes to nothing.

    Yuri Berchiche is getting so much of the ball down the left, much like Jordi Alba in the olden days. Raul Garcia slips him in but his cross is blocked.

    Oh that is close from Athletic. Yuri Berchiche is given the ball by a backheel and flashes a cross across the six-yard box which Inaki Williams is inches away from meeting.

    GOAL - Barcelona 2-1 Athletic Bilbaopublished at 75 mins

    Antoine Griezmann

    As I say that, Barcelona create a clear-cut chance and take it.

    Ousmane Dembele plays Oscar Mingueza down the right and the defender squares the ball to an unmarked Antoine Griezmann, who rifles it into the roof of the net from eight yards.

    It's not been a game of many clear-cut chances. Unai Simon has made three saves, with Marc-Andre ter Stegen only saving once.

    Barcelona are pushing for a winner and Athletic counter but sub Alex Berenguer slams a shot into the side-netting from a tight angle.
