    Celta Vigo 1-3 Barcelona

    All over in Munich, where Bayern Munich have edged four points clear at the top of the Bundesliga.

    Freiburg pulled a goal back in injury-time but Robert Lewandowski's finish proves enough to get the hosts over the line.

    Iago Aspas

    Comeback?

    Iago Aspas slots in as Barcelona can't clear their lines following an initial save from Marc-Andre Ter Stegen and then a block on the line by Ronald Araujo.

    It's a deserved goal for the hosts after a lively start to the second half.

  8. HALF-TIMEpublished at 16:05 Greenwich Mean Time 6 November 2021

    Celta Vigo 0-3 Barcelona

    That's all for the first half.

    A dream 45 minutes for Barcelona at Celta Vigo on the scoreboard - with that apparent injury to Ansu Fati the only blemish for the visitors.

    We'll have two minutes of added-time at the end of this first half, as Ansu Fati is walked round the edge of the pitch by the medical staff.

  10. Postpublished at 43 mins

    Celta Vigo 0-3 Barcelona

    Concern for Barcelona as Ansu Fati is on the floor and looks to be in some discomfort.

    Philippe Coutinho has been sent out for a warm-up.

    Celta Vigo 0-3 Barcelona

    Celta try to get going on the counter, but Clement Lenglet heads clear from an initial cross into the box before Javi Galan nestles a shot into the side-netting. It's not happening for the hosts so far.

  12. CLOSE!published at 38 mins

    Celta Vigo 0-3 Barcelona

    Three goals to the good, but it could - and perhaps should - be four!

    The ball is pulled back to Ansu Fati in the penalty area but the Barca forward pulls his first-time shot wide of the post.

    Memphis Depay

    A lovely team goal!

    Memphis Depay heads in from Jordi Alba's cross to round off a wonderfully worked move. The Celta Vigo players couldn't get close to the ball.

    What a sign-off this is proving to be for interim boss Sergi Barjuan.

    Celta Vigo 0-2 Barcelona

    It has been a good response from the hosts since falling 2-0 behind.

    Augusto Solari does well on the right to earn a corner for his side - and from the resulting set-piece Renato Tapia should score! The ball comes across to the far post but the Celta Vigo midfielder makes a mess of the shot.

  15. YELLOW CARDpublished at 30 mins

    Celta Vigo 0-2 Barcelona

    Eric Garcia is the first player to go into the referees book for a late tackle from behind.

    It hands Celta Vigo the chance to put a cross into the Barcelona box, but instead Iago Aspas decides to take aim and sends his low attempt wide.

    Celta Vigo 0-2 Barcelona

    Thiago Galhardo proves a nuisance as Celta search for a route back into the match, but he's penalised for a foul in the Barcelona penalty area as he tries to wrestle back possession for his side.

    Celta Vigo 0-2 Barcelona

    Barcelona are dominating possession, as you'd expect, as the visitors continue to stretch and probe the Celta Vigo back line.

    The hosts are back in numbers, but they're able to break - only to see Nolito crowded off the ball midway into the Barca half.

    Great hit!

    Another threatening attack down the left delivers for Barcelona as Nicolas Gonzalez pulls the ball back to Sergio Busquets and the midfielder lets fly from the edge of the penalty area. Superb start for the visitors.
