Jules Kounde flicks on a corner and Ronald Araujo heads over from four yards. Should be scoring there really.

Barca are in cruise control. Betis keeper Rui Silva comes flying 20 yards out of his box to stop another chance.

La Liga legend Joaquin comes on for his final appearance at the Nou Camp.

The 41-year-old Betis star is retiring at the end of the season.

Standing ovation.

Raphinha is the fifth La Liga player to reach double figures for both goals (10) and assists (11) this season in all competitions.

Vinicius Jr (22, 18) Rodrygo (14, 10) Samuel Chukwueze (13, 11) and Antoine Griezmann (12, 12) are the others.

Double change for Barcelona. Marcos Alonso replaces former Chelsea team-mate Andreas Christensen and Ansu Fati is on for Frenkie de Jong.

Robert Lewandowski hits the post and a stretching Raphinha can't reach the rebound.

Brilliant tackle from Guido Rodríguez to stop Robert Lewandowksi just as the Barcelona striker is about to go round keeper Rui Silva.

Real Betis finally have a shot on target. Juan Miranda makes a run to the near post and tries to poke a shot past Marc-Andre ter Stegen but the German saves.

Betis have weathered that Barca storm a bit at the start of the second half. Joaquin, 26 years older than Lamine Yamal, is warming up for the visitors.

The La Liga TV commentators have just reminded me that Barcelona have a 15-year-old on the bench, Spain U19 forward Lamine Yamal.

He would be the youngest La Liga player in history if he comes on.

Raphinha crosses for Robert Lewandowski and his snap-shot is blocked for a corner. Rapid start.

Barca have a chance just 25 seconds after the restart as Robert Lewandowski runs forward and shoots over.

The second half begins. Surely Barcelona are going back to 11 points clear.

Betis bring on Paul Akouokou for Luis Henrique at the break.

Robert Lewandowski has scored 19 goals in La Liga this season, the most by a player in his first campaign for Barcelona in the competition since Samuel Eto'o in 2004-05 (24 goals).

Sergio Busquets has assisted four La Liga goals this season. Only once before, in 2020-21 (five) has set up more goals in a league campaign.

Half-time in the French Cup final and Toulouse are 4-0 up against Nantes now.

Doubles for 22-year-olds Logan Costa and Thijs Dallinga.

This would be the biggest French Cup final margin of victory since 1970.

The half-time whistle goes and this game is done really.

A heavy touch from Raphinha from Sergio Busquets' lovely ball over the top denies him a golden chance for 4-0.

Raphinha (five goals, four assists) and Robert Lewandowski (six goals, two assists) have been involved in the most La Liga goals in 2023.
