Both teams had chances but neither was able to score as it ended in a 0-0 draw. The win makes the group standings even closer as no club is eliminated and all of the four teams could still win the group. Barcelona dominated possession and shots but couldn’t convert any chances. Zlatan Ibrahimovic had one of the best chances in the 3rd minutes as he hit the post on a shot. Lionel Messi would do the same in the first half but it wasn’t going the visitor’s way in the match.
