    Barcelona 0-0 Real Madrid

    An early goal for Barcelona and it would be very difficult to see Real Madrid turning the tie around.

    The hosts keep up their early pressure as Robert Lewandowski gets into the box but his shot is blocked.

    There's concern for Real Madrid here as Eduardo Camavinga is down injured.

    Barca are looking to get this tie away up the stairs and to its bed before the night is much older. A ferocious start.

    Barcelona 0-0 Real Madrid

    Big clearance off the line by Eduardo Camavinga from Gavi's dangerous ball into the box.

    Moments later, Barcelona appeal for a penalty as the ball appears to hit David Alaba's hand as he slides inside the box. VAR has a look, but nothing is given.

    Lively start!

    An early opportunity to create something for Real Madrid as they have a free kick 30 or so yards from goal. Toni Kroos is standing over it, he floats to the back post but it is over everyone's heads.

    Real Madrid will be feeling a little unfortunate after Barcelona won the first leg courtesy of an own goal.
