It's all gone a bit quiet but you sense both teams have more to give. Barca seem content to let Villarreal come at them and then hit them on the break. A half chance for Griezmann to get his hat-trick but he cannot make a clean connection.

Paco Alcacer wins a corner for Villarreal. It's played short before a cross is swung in but it comes to nothing. The home team are still very much in this.

Antoine Griezmann adds a yellow card to his two goals. There's been one or two meaty challenges since the re-start while Gerard Moreno has had a tame header saved.

This is definitely turning into a game to forget for Juan Foyth. He carelessly gives the ball straight to a Barcelona shirt before committing a foul trying to win it back.

And off we go.

Barcelona are making a change before the second-half gets under way. Sergi Roberto is coming on for Sergino Dest.

Antoine Griezmann can become the first player representing France to score a La Liga hat-trick for Barcelona since Thierry Henry in a 4-0 home win over Valencia on 6 December 2008.

This is not good news for Villarreal.

Barcelona are unbeaten in their previous 16 La Liga games Antoine Griezmann has scored in.

Villarreal 1-2 Antoine Griezmann.

Griezmann's on fire! A clever back-heel by Frenkie de Jong sets up a big chance and he lashes towards the net but the keeper is down to block.

Barca have their noses in front and are controlling the game with half-time looming. What does Unai Emergy say to Juan Foyth after such a huge error?

Griezmann is on a hat-trick. He's has yet to score one in La Liga for Barca. That could all change today.

Having taken the lead, Villarreal have conceded twice in the space of seven minutes. That was an awful moment for Villarreal's on loan defender from Tottenham.

There were only 87 seconds between Samuel Chukwueze's opener and Antoine Griezmann's equaliser.

This game is certainly living up to its pre-match billing. Two teams going for it. Two gorgeous goals.
