Barcelona have managed to wrestle control of the match away from Celta Vigo in the last few minutes. They are camped on the edge of the penalty area as they look for a way through.

Shot is blocked! Ansu drives with the ball at his feet into the opposition penalty area, but the teenager is eventually crowded out and his shot is blocked by Araujo. Nice idea, though.

Barcelona simply can't afford to drop points here. Real Madrid have found their stride since the resumption of the Liga season after the coronavirus shutdown. They need a win.
54'
No penalty! The officials take a look at a potential foul on Messi inside the Celta Vigo penalty area, but they decide there wasn't enough in that for a penalty kick and play continues.

We have a match on our hands now. Celta Vigo had been threatening that goal. It wasn't great from Umtiti in the build up to the goal. He was caught out by the pass played in behind.

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL! Celta Vigo 1 (51 mins - Fedor Smolov) Barcelona 1. Celta Vigo have equalised at the start of the second half! Okay does really well to burst in behind the Barcelona backline and then find Smolov in the middle with a pass. The Russian striker had the simple task of finishing into the empty net!

As promising as much of Celta Vigo's play has been, they need to show much more of a cutting edge in front of goal. They have hit the post, but they need to actually get more shots away!
48'
Crunching tackle! Aspas believes he was fouled inside the area by Umtiti, but replays show the French centre back won the ball very cleanly. Correct decision by the referee.

The opening 45 minutes were certainly an entertaining affair. Suarez's goal is the difference between the two sides, but Celta Vigo have carried a goal threat of their own.

HALF TIME: Celta Vigo 1-0 Barcelona. Suarez's goal is the difference between the two sides at the break, but Celta Vigo have shown enough to suggest that this match isn't over yet.

Aspas had to pass! What a chance that was for Celta Vigo to equalise, with Pique left on his own against Aspas and Smolov, but the former takes too long and in the end his shot is blocked.
