GREAT SAVE FROM KAMENI! Neymar probably should have gone himself, but after cutting inside from the left side he passes to Messi, who draws the save from the Malaga keeper.
51'
Malaga continue to look dangerous on the counter attack! Rosales looks for the run of of Juankar with a low ball from the right side, but Mascherano makes the crucial interception.
51'
Barcelona have another penalty shout waved away by the referee! Neymar fell over Angeleri inside the 18 yard box, but this time the home side didn't seem to have much of a case.
50'
HE SLIPPED AT JUST THE WRONG MOMENT! Messi chips a great pass over the top for Neymar, who lays it back to the number 10. But Messi slips just as he's about to take the shot!
49'
Malaga hit hard and with pace on the counter attack, but not for the first time tonight the final pass from Amrabat was poor. Rosales was never reaching that ball down the right wing!
48'
47'
Neymar started the first half well, but faded as it went on. Is his fitness an issue? The Brazilian hasn't played this season and it would be understandable if he was flagging by now.
46'
Barcelona were still upset with the referee as they disappeared down the tunnel at the end of the first half. They felt they should have been awarded two penalties, and they had a point.
45'
The second half is under way! Barcelona were left frustrated in the opening 45 minutes, with Malaga currently holding them 0-0.

What did you make of the first half? Should Barcelona have had a penalty kick in the opening 45 minutes? Are Malaga still Barcelona's bogey team? Tweet me!
47'
HALF-TIME: Barcelona 0-0 Malaga. The hosts have been the better of the two teams - and they probably should have had a penalty kick - but Malaga have been well-drilled at the back.
46'
One minute of stoppage time will be played at the end of the second half.
45'
44'
That was surely a handball! Neymar turns in the box, with Torres sliding in on the Brazilian. The Malaga player definitely touched that with his arm, but the officials missed it!
43'
Recio has gone down holding his hip after a coming together with Rakitic. He receives some treatment and looks like he will be okay to continue. Malaga don't need to make another change.
42'
Malaga have looked dangerous at times when they have come forward on the counter attack. This certainly isn't the best Barca defence, and they could take advantage of that.
41'
WHAT A BALL INTO THE BOX FROM AMRABAT! He split the two Barcelona defenders with that cross, but Juankar just couldn't stretch far enough to get any purchase on his effort.
40'
This is perhaps where Barcelona miss Xavi Hernandez. In this situation he would be the one to take charge of things in the centre of the pitch and pick up the tempo of their play.
39'
38'
How about this for a statistic? Malaga have now gone more than four hours since they last conceded to Barcelona. They were their bogey team last season and are well-drilled tonight too.
37'
Neymar has a shot on goal this time. The Brazilian managed to get the effort away under pressure from three Malaga players, but it was rather simple for Kameni to make the save.
