That's what Memphis offers you. That goal came at a good time for Barcelona just as Getafe were starting to feel comfortable in the match. The Dutchman looks natural in these colours!

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL! Barcelona 2 (31 mins - Memphis Depay) Getafe 1. Barcelona have regained the lead and what a goal that is by Memphis! He received the pass inside the box, stood up his man, beat him with a stepover and fired home a finish at the near post! The Dutchman just looked so composed!

Getafe have recovered well after going behind in the first few minutes. They are more than holding their own and Barcelona are starting to get frustrated. They need to keep their cool.

Having said all that about Memphis, he has been rather quiet in the opening half hour of this match. Barcelona could do with him taking more of a grip of things in attack.

It should be noted that Alena was shown a yellow card some moments ago for a foul on de Jong.

While Barcelona are still understandably reeling from the departure of Lionel Messi, Memphis looks to have embraced the challenge of replacing the legendary Argentine.
26'
For all the talk of transfers, Barcelona’s signing of Memphis as a free agent looks to have been a great piece of business. The Dutch attacker has settled in straight away at his new club.
25'
Memphis became the only the third Barcelona player to be involved in two goals in his first two games for the club (after Cesc Fabregas and Alexis Sanchez) by scoring against Athletic.

Barca will miss Pedri this afternoon, but Koeman was sensible to give the teenager some time off. Both the Camp Nou club and Spain were at risk of burning out the midfielder!
21'
Pedri isn’t in the match day squad for Barcelona this afternoon. The teenager has been given some time off by Koeman after a hectic summer which saw him play at the Euros and the Olympics.
20'
From a Barcelona point of view, that's a poor goal to concede. They simply allowed Getafe too much space around the edge of the box and the away team made them pay for it.

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL! Barcelona 1 Getafe 1 (19 mins - Sandro Ramirez). An equaliser out of nothing! Sandro has scored against his former club and he isn't holding back in his celebration! There was a very neat and tidy one-two on the edge of the box and Sandro guided a right-foot finish into the bottom corner!

This has been a good start to the match by Barcelona. They have the lead and are in control of things. However, they have been here before and have allowed that grip to slip.

Braithwaite has started this match well. Replays show that the Danish forward actually got a touch on the cross from Alba for Robertos' goal. It was actually Braithwaite's assist!

Memphis takes aim! The space opened up for the Dutchman outside the penalty box, he unleashes a strike, but Soria makes the save! Memphis getting in a sighter nice and early.

Barcelona were second best for much of the match against Athletic Club last week. In fact, the home side could have been out of sight within the opening 60 minutes! Dominant.
