00:03:29.680what they had been planning

00:03:36.320[Applause]

00:03:39.280just look at this again the combination

00:03:41.280play in the top third of the field was

00:04:46.080to admire the patience of the passing as

00:04:48.000they look for that defense spitting ball

00:04:49.919and then the shot could not be hit any

00:05:21.840don't think it was ever going to trouble

00:05:23.039the goalkeeper

00:05:23.850[Applause]

00:05:40.060[Applause]

00:06:06.960sergio busquets

00:06:08.330[Applause]

00:06:16.560moving the ball effectively looking for

00:06:18.400the right moments

00:06:20.400oh moving it nicely

00:06:22.479and the flag does go up must have been

00:06:24.400close

00:06:30.639really showing off his wide range of

00:06:32.560passing skills

00:06:34.070[Applause]

00:06:37.360the attack continues they're making

00:06:39.199considerable progress targets available

00:06:41.840cross comes in

00:06:43.199and still danger here

00:06:47.039and i think the threat has been averted

00:06:50.319well i still don't know how he kept that

00:06:51.919out derek it's a fantastic save to keep

00:06:54.560it all square

00:06:57.360barcelona have given us away

00:07:09.520damier

00:07:17.440decent looking attack here

00:07:21.599still pushing for the goal that would

00:07:22.960put them ahead but not forcing it

00:07:25.440putting his body on the line

00:07:36.000might be a chance here

00:07:38.080but the keeper was called upon and

00:07:40.160delivered well he's so good in those 1v1

00:07:42.560moments and he's proved it yet again

00:07:46.710[Applause]

00:07:50.240short corner taken

00:07:53.919above the crosswork out for them

00:07:55.919not really the ideal clearance

00:08:01.759flag up tight offside

00:08:41.680sergio busquets

00:08:44.320and defy on the ball

00:08:45.640[Applause]

00:08:55.120beautifully disguised ball

00:08:58.640going well

00:09:01.839he'll be delighted to have won the ball

00:09:03.440having made that difficult challenge

00:09:10.080[Applause]

00:09:12.080they're certainly allowing their

00:09:13.120opponents to come on to them

00:09:15.760a wonderful intervention

00:09:18.959well no surprise there barcelona have

00:09:20.720enjoyed most of the possession but they

00:09:22.399haven't done enough with it particularly

00:09:23.760in the midfield areas where their

00:09:25.200passing has been far too safe and that

00:09:27.360needs to change quickly if they're to

00:09:28.640win this one

00:09:30.900[Applause]

00:09:37.040a bit sloppy in possession

00:09:45.519intense pressure

00:09:49.440julian weigel

00:09:53.519otto mendy has it

00:09:56.720diego gonzalez

00:10:00.000pc

00:10:02.399julian weigel

00:10:05.360rimaldo

00:10:07.040with options at the back post here

00:10:09.279the clearance wasn't decisive

00:10:15.680now there to intercept

00:10:22.160jordi alba

00:10:24.010[Applause]

00:10:28.079barcelona now and potentially a

00:10:29.839dangerous position

00:10:37.360here's pc

00:10:39.680untidy on the ball

00:10:47.420[Applause]

00:10:52.320still passing it around with authority

00:10:55.360he takes aim

00:10:56.720making sure it didn't get past him

00:10:59.360[Applause]

00:11:04.850[Applause]

00:11:09.120well the first 45 minutes have come and

00:11:11.200gone here in catalonia

00:11:16.079well pc so very hard to subdue in the

00:11:18.959first half stuart how about your

00:11:20.959thoughts

00:11:22.000yes derek he was a real nuisance in the

00:11:23.760first half scored his goal made lots of

00:11:25.760good runs and he could be the match

00:11:27.440winner in the second half i think

00:11:39.130[Music]

00:11:41.519and so the second half of this champions

00:11:43.680league group stage match day one contest

00:11:46.079commences

00:11:51.360grimaldo

00:12:19.760crossing into the middle

00:12:21.519thwarting

00:12:22.839him and just narrowly wide well it's a

00:12:26.720good effort from that range but i think

00:12:28.399the keeper had it covered

00:12:38.959well nothing comes of it

00:12:45.920chance to do damage

00:12:47.920too much pace on that particular pass

00:12:50.720simple

00:12:53.040[Applause]

00:13:05.120good tackle

00:13:07.480[Applause]

00:13:13.120grimaldo

00:13:21.839very good pass finally

00:13:25.760rafa

00:13:36.079terrific pass

00:13:37.220[Applause]

00:13:39.120that is really alert defending just when

00:13:41.839the situation looked dangerous

00:13:43.620[Applause]

00:13:47.360raphael or sitting deep like this might

00:13:50.160be a dangerous game

00:13:53.519and this is veigal

00:13:58.160targets available cross comes in

00:14:00.480a decisive clearance it was

00:14:04.240[Applause]

00:14:25.120you've got to say

00:14:28.490[Music]

00:16:10.399poor attempt a long way wide

00:16:13.839and a retrospective yellow card is the

00:16:16.240referee's verdict well no doubt about it

00:16:18.800that earlier challenge was a definite

00:16:20.320booking

00:18:47.360wonderfully weighted pass this is and

00:18:49.200there's certainly no doubt about the

00:18:50.559finish he really hits it with power and

00:18:52.320accuracy nothing the keeper can do about

00:18:54.400that

00:19:08.000now they're going to alter things here's

00:19:10.000the substitution

00:19:10.800[Applause]
