  • Live Commentary

    Time:90'
    • Barcelona
    • Stuttgart
    • 73' Ewerthon with another chance but he sends it wide.
    • 67' Ronaldinho makes it 3-1 to Barca, a good comeback and a fair reflection of the gap in quality between the two sides.
    • 62' BARCA SUB: Iniesta on for Eto'o.
    • 57' STUTTGART SUB: Hilbert on for Basturk.
    • 58' Eto'o scores a simle tap-in to make it 2-1! Back from injury, finally he is back on goalscoring form.
    • 52' BARCA SUB: Bojan on for Gudjohnsen.
    • 50' Puyol surges forward on the right again and he swings a cross over which GUDJOHNSEN CAN MEET but he cannot get there again!
    • 48' Meira booked for verbals.
    • 46' Second half underway!
    • 45+1 And that's half-time, 1-1 at the Camp Nou.
    • 44' One minute of injury time being played...
    • 38' Da Silva sends another free kick on goal but this time Jorquera is equal to it and palms it away for a corner.
    • 35' Schaefer booked for his protests.
    • 34' The ball comes in to Giovani who seems to knock it in with his arm but it's given! Schaefer is furious and is telling the ref it was a handball but the goal stands! 1-1!
    • 33' Puyol injured and needs treatment after colliding with Basturk.
    • 32' Barca with a lot of the ball but lacking the killer pass to open up the Stuttgart defence. Giovani again wasteful, this time from the right wing.
    • 27' Puyol lucky not to get booked after going in hard on Da Silva.
    • 18' Puyol on the right and he flings in a great cross for ETO'O but he can't make contact!!
    • 14' Giovani tries to do one trick too many after running the ball to Schaefer in the Stuttgart goal, who makes the save.
    • 12' Ewerthon in on the act now, surging forward on the counter and sending a shot flashing past the upright.
    • 10' Xavi with a chance to let fly but his shot skews away and is blocked by a Stuttgart shirt.
    • 4' Eto'o is through on the keeper but delays the shot too long and he makes the save.
    • 2' Free-kick to Stuttgart just outside the area... Da Silva to take... and he whips it into the back of the net! Nightmare start for Jorquera, Stuttgart take the lead!
    • 1' Match underway at the Camp Nou...
    • - So, oddly given this match being a dead rubber, Barca field a very strong team, Albert Jorquera in goal aside. Nice to see.
