Barcelona 0-0 Alaves
Pretty much every outfield player is in Alaves' half. It's a 10 v 10 attacking/defending training session.
Alaves keeper Fernando Pacheco takes a risk by coming off his line but he denies Lionel Messi with a double save.

Barcelona hand a La Liga debut to 18-year-old central midfielder Ilaix Moriba.
