SUAREZ... JUST WIDE! That's the best chance of the game so far for Barcelona. Suarez was slotted through, the angle was tight, but he flashes his shot across goal and just wide of the far post.

37'

36'

BARCELONA SCRAMBLE! The Catalans just cannot find a cutting edge in the final third. First it's Suarez who has the shot and then Alba's cross into the box is cleared by Kjaer.

35'

Can Rafinha prove himself to be a solid squad option for Barcelona this season? There is interest in the midfielder after his loan spell at Inter Milan last season. Will he stay past the deadline?

34'

Lenglet needed to get there. The new Barcelona defender strained ever sinew in his neck to get his head on that clipped pass over the top from deep for Muriel. Just about got there.

33'

32'

Dembele crosses into the Sevilla box, but there was literally not one Barcelona player in there to get on the end of it. The Frenchman's final product must get better than that this season.

31'

JUST TOO HIGH! Oh that was close to being the perfect cross for Muriel. I think it was Sarabia who aimed the cross in for the Colombian, but he couldn't get his head on the end of it.

30'

Part of the problem for Sevilla last season was that they didn't have a true goalscorer to lead the line. Will that be an issue for them this season? Can Machin solve that?

29'

28'

Barcelona are back on top again after a good period for Sevilla. They are creating chances, but their conversion rate has been really poor. Suarez and Lenglet might have done better.

27'

LENGLET CHANCE! That was a big opportunity for the centre back to score against his old club. He got on the end of Messi's clipped freekick delivery into the box, but headed over.

26'

Vazquez becomes the first Sevilla player to be booked, bringing down Rafinha.

SUAREZ TAKES AIM! The Barcelona striker was in behind the Sevilla defence, there. However, he decides to take the shot early and draws the save from Vaclik in the goal.

24'

We thought that Dembele might play on the right side of the attacking line, given that's where he played last season. But the young Frenchman is actually out on the right side.

23'

22'

The early signs have been good for Machin as Sevilla manager. His team look well coached, which perhaps shouldn't surprise us given what he achieved at Girona last season.

21'

The Spanish Super Copa game can give a false impression ahead of the new season. For instance, Real Madrid thumped Barcelona last season. Then finished third in La Liga.

20'

Barcelona are starting to turn the screw now. However, while they are camped on the edge of the opposition box, Sevilla look well drilled and are dangerous on the rapid counter attack.

19'

18'

ALBA DRAWS THE SAVE! Vaclik is called into action. Most thought that Alba would look to play the ball across the goal, but he took on the shot himself and forced the save at the near post.
