Galatasaray v Barcelona - Barca prevail with aid of wonder-goal

They deserved to win an encounter that was thrilling, at least until they went in front. This will all count for nought of course if they do not perform at El Clasico at the weekend. Thanks for following the game with us.

A nice exchange of passes with Alba on the edge of the box before the Dutchman shoots and just misses the target.

But the flag was up for the ball through from Depay.

He caught a free kick with a guided side-foot volley and was not too far away from another.

Really hard to blame him there when bottles were raining down at him.

Galatasaray are throwing objects on the field. Alba threw booted the ball into the crowd and the referee looked to take them off initially but now the game will precede.

They replace Aubameyang and Pique who are given a bit of rest for the Clasico at the weekend.

Akturkoglu got behind the defence but rather than shoot looked to square for no one in the centre.

He fouled Antalyali to quell a counter-attack.

Alba cleverly pulled a ball back to the forward but he saw his effort blocked.

But the substitute fires wide from an impossibly tight angle.

Dervisoglu and Morutan come on to replace him.

And Babel got either hit by the ball or a clash of heads and is requiring treatment.

It was for a foul on Gavi on the edge of the box.

Busquet's slide-rule pass looked to have set the former Manchester City forward through but the Brazilian stopper made a perfectly-timed challenge.

The Dutchman's had a fine game but he is now replaced by the young star.

Dembele teed him up but Marcao got across to block his effort.

A fresh pair of legs needed in attack.

Van Aanholt smashed an effort from fully 30 yards with the outside of his boot which had the keeper well beaten and curled and dipped just brushing the roof of the net.

It seems the full back has a thigh injury.
