Benfica against Barcelona Live Score: UEFA Champions League result, updates, statistics, as Pau Comatarsi is sent

by

Barcelona competes against Benfica for the second time in the UEFA Champions League this season when they drive for the 16 round of 16 in Estadio da Luz.

The Catalans won this game in the league phase in one of the most appealing games of the entire season with 5: 4, with Raphinha finally winning victory in the last seconds of a hectic clash.

With a place in the quarter -finals in the line, it is likely that these two games of the last 16 will be a little less chaotic, but Barca rarely did not enable entertainment under Hansi Flick this season, even if the results have not been in the way.

Benfica scores an average of three goals per game at home this season, and you will believe that you can lead to Barca again.

Benfica against Barcelona Live updates, highlights and comments

Half -time

It is a level during the break and it is difficult to call at this point. How will the 10 men of Barcelona deal with in the second half? You have done well so far …

45+6 minutes: Another chance for Barca when Raphinha races into the box, but he tries to choose Lamin Yamal with a low pass, and Alvaro Carreras cuts it out. Could he have shot there?

45+1 minutes: Barca is not satisfied with a challenge that Inigo Martinez left in great pain. The defender was booked The midfielder received a yellow card to accidentally plant his tunnels on Martinez's leg, which seemed fair.

43 minutes: Great save, Szczesny! A cross is snapped into the long post, in which Akturtoglu is waiting for the ball to fall. He nods with the goal, but the Polish goalkeeper excludes the angle and spreads well to create the block.

41 minutes: Raphinha races during the break, but his excerpt cannot find a teammate. Barca still looks a threat when they come forward. Benfica has to judge this carefully.

39 minutes: One thing that Barcelona did well here is to slow down the game and prevent Benfica from building up any dynamic after this red card. Her cause was obviously supported by the pyrotechnics in the stands, which are currently difficult to see on the field.

35 minutes: There is a break in the game here because fireworks in a corner of the floor are triggered by some home fans.

24 minutes: Szczesny makes a good parliament out of the free kick, and the rebound is widely pulled. Barca will record Ronald Araujo for Dani Olmo for Commessi.

22 minutes: red card! Pau Cubarsi is sent by the chic! He ran next to Pavlidis and slipped over to try to take the ball. He was easy to get in touch when he skyted the striker, but referee Felix Zwayer said that this was a foul and one that played a clear chance of scoring. Var checks and keeps the decision!

Clock in the USA:

UNITED KINGDOM:

Canada:

19 minutes: Vangelis Pavlidis shoots back after another Benfica break. This Barca trap has worked well so far, but it only has to stall once …

12 minutes: Brilliant by Anatoliy Trubin! He keeps Olmo and Robert Lewandowski away in the near future. The LUZ roars its approval.

4 minutes: Great early chances! Kerem Akturtoglu is denied by a brilliant Szczesny rescue before Leandro Barreiro shoots far. Then Dani Olmo comes very close to snapping the lead for the visitors.

Kickoff: First half

We are gone and run!

5 minutes before the kick -off: Here are the teams. Repeat revenge?

20 minutes before the kick -off: Wojciech Szczesny had a hard night in this Madcap 5-4 game in January and, as you can see from the following photo, they hardly look like optimal conditions for goal maintenance.

50 minutes before the start: Flick's team is in the building. There are no big surprises in his selection of this evening, although it is worth mentioning that Pedri, Olmo and de Jong are undestested as midfield. That could be an interesting battle area.

1 hour 19 minutes before the start: The team messages are in! Dani Olmo And Frenkie de Jong Both start for Barca, the latter defeating the page here. For Benfica, Angel di Maria missed by injury,

1 hour 40 minutes before the start: This will be the 11th meeting between Benfica and Barcelona. The first was in 1961 when Bela Guttmann's big team won his first European Cup thanks to a 3-2 win against the Catalans. Benfica's former manager's “curse” means that they have not won the trophy since leaving the association in 1962.

2 hours before the kick -off: Hands up if you hope for more drama as this!
