    HT: Barcelona 1-1 Real Madrid

    Real Madrid's gameplan is obvious. They are using their pace to get in behind Barca's backline and are destroying them on the counter-attack.

    But Luuk de Jong has been relatively unmarked inside the box. When Barca get those crosses in, he's winning them in the air.

    These two have been in fine form. Another goal and assist from Vinicius Junior and Karim Benzema.

    Nicely poised at the break!

    Vinicius Junior's opener cancelled out by Luuk de Jong.

    Gavi gives it away then races back and pulls the shirt of the opponent. He's in the book for it too.

    Xavi is fuming! Barcelona have given it away constantly throughout this first half.

    Dani Alves, to Sergio Busquets... Tries to pick out Ousmane Dembele but it's headed back to Thibaut Courtois.

    Luuk de Jong (41 mins)

    Luuk de Jong flicks it on to Ousmane Dembele with the back of his head. He curls it in from the left and it ends up bouncing off Eder Militao.

    De Jong is there to pounce on it and he gets lucky as it hits him, bounces off Thibaut Courtois and off the post, before rolling over the line.

    He'll take it! Game on.

    Barcelona 0-1 Real Madrid

    Ousmane Dembele has time to shoot as he's teed up inside the box but he wants the perfect angle. He dances past one defender, skips past another, but the chance goes begging and he can't get the shot off.

    Barcelona 0-1 Real Madrid

    Real have it back in their control after a brief spell of Barca pressure. Luka Modric plays a few diagonal balls to switch play before Ferland Mendy spins away on the left.

    Eventually, Marco Asensio hits one with his left foot from the edge of the box but it's a comfortable, low save for Marc-Andre Ter Stegen.

    It's played over the top for Ferran Torres and he hooks it back into a dangerous area but there's nobody there for Barca. Luuk de Jong was stood watching!

    Ousmane Dembele has a crack from long range. Skies it.

    Aleks: Barcelona-2022: all in defense, all in attack, all screwing up.

    Luuk de Jong again!

    It's well-worked by Barca, who switch it from right to left and when the cross comes in, it's De Jong who is there at the back post.

    It's a much harder chance but he nods it into the ground and it bounces up kindly for Thibaut Courtois to gather it in.

    Barcelona create a real chance here!

    Gerard Pique moves it on to Ousmane Dembele on the left. He chips it into Luuk de Jong, who is unmarked in the centre.

    It's a free header but he nods it straight at Thibaut Coutois. He has to do better there, surely?

    Almost half an hour gone and that Real Madrid goal was coming. Every time they rob Barcelona of possession, they have created something on the break.

    Vinicius Junior (25 mins)

    He's done it again!

    It's Real on the counter-attack again. Vinicius Junior is played through, he beats Ronald Araújo for pace and fires it into the roof of the net.

    Another assist for Karim Benzema too but it was given away by Sergio Busquets far too easily.

    Real are ahead in El Clasico!

    Dani Carvajal is tracked all the way by Ousmane Dembele as Real try to mount another attack down the right.

    Barcelona 0-0 Real Madrid

    Dani Alves has done well so far with Vinicius Junior but Real have had the better chances and look so dangrous on the counter-attack.

    They have been the better side after 20 minutes or so.

  20. CLOSE!published at 20 mins

    Barcelona 0-0 Real Madrid

    Barca are getting caught on the break far too easily!

    Vinicius Junior cuts in from the left, Karim Benzema takes defenders away to one side and Marco Asensio is in support on the other.

    It comes to Asensio, who shifts it onto his left foot, but curls it over the bar.
