88' HE SHOULD HAVE SCORED! Courtesy some clever play and brilliant dribbling, Sergi Roberto finds a yard of space with the goal at his mercy, but his left footed effort is well wide.
87' Another swashbuckling run from Arda Turan ends with Barca earning a corner. Can the Blaugrana profit? Denis Suarez takes it to the far post and Szczesny comes out to tip the ball away from the goal.
84' NEARLY! Arda Turan chips a cross from the right that seems perfect for Suarez to volley home at the near post, only for Szczesny to come out and distract the Uruguayan into shooting wide.
81' CLOSE! Alena attempts a low drive from the edge of the box, but his left footed effort flies wide of goal, despite Szczesny scrambling across to get the ball
78' So close! Denis, Arda and Luis Suarez combine brilliantly to begin a foray forward on the right, before finding Luis in the box. The Uruguayan opens his body and attempts a guided shot into the bottom corner, but Szczesny is aware of the danger and pounces on the ball
76' IS THIS A FINAL?! Alex Sandro sends in a peach of a low cross that is begging to be turned into the net, only for Higuain to run onto the ball in the box and send his effort well over the bar!
68' HOW DID HE MISS?! Jordi Alba is sent clear of the Juve backline with a long ball and the Spaniard cuts the ball back for Denis Suarez in the box, but he skies his effort well over the bar.
63' As easy as they come. Chiellini simply outmuscles the mere mortals around him from the right wing corner and heads the ball home at the far post. Barcelona 2-1 Juventus
61' Oooof! Dybala gets his Neymar audition underway with a lovely shimmy of his bodt to wrongfoot, not 1, not 2, but 3 markers and begin a move. Sadly it peters out...
55' TWO CHANCES IN AS MANY SECONDS! Luis Suarez makes a mug of De Sciglio and forces Szczesny into a good save from a narrow angle, before pouncing on the rebound and attempting to cross into the box, only for no Barca player to be following up for a certain goal at the far post.
54' WHAT A CHANCE! Juve should really have a goal back! Betancur sends in a clever low cross from the left to Pjanic making a late run on the edge of the box. The midfielder skies his effort when the goal was at his mercy.
49' Luis Suarez does what he does and collects a pass from the left wing with an intelligent run into that channel, although his attempted cross is blocked out for a corner - which comes to nothing.
47' It's a very sedate start to the second half, as Barcelona pass the ball around at the back without any penetrative instinct - Umtiti and Marlon are indulging in a fair bit of stat-padding here.
