    Barca drop points, Atletico lose again

    A terrible defensive error by Barcelona's Rafael Marquez handed Osasuna an injury-time equaliser in a 1-1 draw in Pamplona. More

  • Live Commentary

    Time:90'
    • Osasuna
    • FC Barcelona
    • 90+3 Barely time to restart, Barcelona concede a horrendous equaliser and, to be fair, they barely deserved to win.
    • 90+3 Osasuna come forward but Marquez should be in control here, but he makes a terrible mistake dilly-dallying on the ball and robs him, he's in and drills in the cross AND DISASTER FOR BARCA!! OWN GOAL BY PIQUE! IT RATTLES OFF HIM AND PAST VALDES FOR 1-1 AT THE DEATH! Terrible error by Marques - on as a sub - and Barca drop two points!!
    • 90+1 Barca take a quick free-kick and Messi is in, clean through but a great save from Ricardo!
    • 90' The crowd get excited when Masoud runs through but he's clearly offside.
    • 89' Ibrahimovic and Marquez are over this one... but Messi hits it with the left, almost catching Ricardo out but he holds on after scrambling across!
    • 88' Xavi and Messi combine on the right and Josetxo hacks him down, yellow card and a free-kick.
    • 87' The free-kick is a clever one-two but despite getting in a great shooting position Messi tries to cut in on to his left, giving the hosts a chance to block.
    • 86' Messi can get in on the right but is fouled and wins a free-kick, which will be taken short...
    • 83' Messi gets the ball on halfway, he races forward, is gaining on the Osasuna area and goes wide to Ibra, he gives it back to Messi and now Puyol but he fires well over.
    • 81' Taken short, as expected, as Barca play keep-ball on the wing. This may not have been the most entertaining match but a professional performance from Los Cules.
    • 80' Corner to Barca on the left, this is where they'll want to keep it...
    • 78' OSASUNA SUB: Ruper on for Punal.
    • 77' Puyol is almost played in overlapping on the right again but Flano heads clear.
    • 74' I can't see Barca giving this up now, weak link Chygrynskiy is off and they have a lead to defend and the ball to keep.
    • 72' Ibra on the left finds Abidal behind him but, after getting it back from Iniesta, he gives it away. Messi has it now though, he looks wide to Puyol who is in on the right wing, he drills it low, through Xavi's legs AND KEITA A COUPLE OF YARDS OUT PUTS IT IN FOR 1-0! Finally a goal, some drama, some good play, something, and of course it's Barca who provide it.
    • 71' OSASUNA SUB: Aranda off for Masoud.
    • 70' Eventually Ibra gets up off the deck and goes off for treatment.
    • 69' Ibra is making a right meal of this but, to be fair, it was a foul. They have to take him off...
    • 68' Flano is sold short and Ibra could be clear but Flano hacks him down! Surely a red card but play on says the ref! Flano got nothing on the ball, hacked down Ibra and the ref says no foul!
    • 67' The likes of Henry, Pedro and Bojan are on the bench for Barca and it's about time Pep Guardiola used them as Ibra has done close to nothing.
    • 66' Aranda on the left finds Camunas overlapping and Juanfran inside has a crack but weak and at Valdes.
    • 65' Monreal wins a throw off Marquez on the left, he sends it in long and it causes some problems but Valdes is able to get there before Pandiani.
    • 64' Pandiani almost catches Barca napping on that free-kick but Valdes races out to gather before him.
    • 63' Josetxo is rolling around holding the small of his back after a rough one from Ibra, who is somewhat harshly booked.
    • 62' Abidal sends it long down the left but well ahead of Ibra.
    • 61' Pandiani clatters into Keita. BARCA SUB: Chygrynskiy, who has not been great, comes off for Marquez.
    • 60' There has been little change from the cautious first half as Ibra is caught offside, lazily standing waiting when he should have moved up with the defence.
    • 58' Keita on the left now wins a corner off Azpilicueta.
    • 57' Messi wriggles away from a cluster of defenders and plays it wide left to Abidal, great ball across the box which Ricardo palms away from Ibra!
    • 56' Valdes claims Juanfran's cross easily enough, he rolls it out to Busquets who gives it away but Barca win it back quickly.
    • 55' Yellow card for Busquets, the second Barca player and third overall to be booked tonight.
    • 54' Messi plays it through to Ibra but Josetxo does his job getting across to put into touch.
    • 53' Iniesta gets forward and can find Ibra on the left, Flano gets a head on it but it drops to the Swede anyway but his shot is weak, blocked and into the arms of Ricardo.
    • 52' Barca appear to have gone 3-4-3 now, with Abidal hugging the left wing and Chygrynskiy playing as a left-sided centre half.
    • 51' Rafa Marquez is warming up, Chygrynskiy is not doing so well out there and could be hauled off it he's not careful.
    • 50' Chygrynskiy is booked for challenge that leaves Aranda rolling around clutching his ankle. Just a knock I think, he's making a meal of it, but a horrible, vindictive tackle straight into his lower leg that could have broken it.
    • 48' Messi threatens to dribble in from the left but over-runs it out for a goal kick.
    • 47' Ibra gets in down the left but his low cut-back is cleared.
    • 46' Second half underway!!
    • 45+1 Half-time and a drab 45 minutes sees them go in goalless!
    • 45' Ibra goes down in a heap on the edge of the box but it was he who made the foul.
    • 44' Punal swings it far post, headed across goal by Pandiani and Josetxo can turn but by the time he gets the shot away he has been closed down and fires well wide.
    • 43' Juanfran gets forward and cuts inside, he slips it Pandiani but Puyol gets there ahead of him, but Puyol gives it straight to Aranda who could be in here but the Barca captain slides in hard to put it behind!
    • 42' Iniesta down the left holds off two challenges, riding the tackles with his exceptional balance, but the support isn't there and Osasuna clear.
    • 41' Iranian Nekounam is a free-kick specialist and he is over this... but he sends it over both wall and crossbar.
    • 40' Iniesta inside to Ibra, but the backheel is too far ahead of Xavi and Osasuna break. Aranda gets it on the edge of the box and he is brought down by Chygrynskiy around 25 yards out....
    • 38' Abidal gets forward to pick up Puyol's poor cross from the right but finds Juanfran in his way. Barca are really labouring tonight.
    • 37' Barca give up on their pass and move briefly and fling some long high ones into the box that Osasuna make light of.
    • 36' A lull in play as the ball goes out of play twice in succession, goal kick to Osasuna now.
    • 34' Juanfran clears Xavi's corner for a throw on the far side.
    • 33' Ibra chasing the ball bundles into the back of Monreal, free-kick to the hosts, no! Corner! Bizarre.
    • 32' Great play by Juanfran cutting in and out on the right, leaving Abidal for dead and swinging a cross in but it flies over everyone's head and out.
    • 31' A right old mess at the back as Josetxo gives it straight to Messi, he's in and cuts inside but the Osasuna defender gets a block in, it spins to Ibra in on the right but the flag is up. Lucky escape there, you cannot just hand Messi chances like that.
    • 29' Xavi plays the corner low to the edge of the box AND IBRA WITH THE DRIVE BUT BLOCKED BY JOSETXO WHO THEN DENIES PUYOL SLIDING IN!!
    • 28' Good play from Ibra to win a corner on the right after holding it up while all alone. Xavi over to take...
    • 27' Is it possible for half an hour of a Barcelona game to be, um, boring? It kind of is thus far. Ibra has barely had a sniff.
    • 25' Puyol gets down the right but over-runs it and it's out for a goal kick.
    • 24' Neither side are really taking any risks at the moment, content to just knock it about and sit relatively deep. Not much pressing off the ball either.
    • 23' The visitors have a neat spell of passing finished by a Xavi shot from range that's easy for Ricardo.
    • 22' The corner is put in near post but Valdes gets on to it and holds on at the second attempt under pressure from Aranda.
    • 21' Ricardo launches it long for Juanfran to get in and Puyol puts his low cross away for a corner.
    • 20' Delay in play after Osasuna get a free-kick for a foul on Azpilicueta...
    • 19' Hmmm, looking at the replay he went down theatrically but Pique pulled at his arm! You can see why he's angry with the ref.
    • 18' Pandiani on the edge of the box plays Aranda through and he goes down, convinced it was a penalty but he gets a yellow for diving!
    • 17' Abidal crosses from deep, chested down by Ibra and Keita shoots but he sends the crashing volley well wide.
    • 16' A Barca attack is stopped by Flano on Xavi but Osasuna don't really clear properly.
    • 15' Throw to Osasuna on the right, hurled in long but cleared by Abidal.
    • 14' Ibra looks frustrated after he is incorrectly called offside, he was half a yard on.
    • 13' Good possession play from Barca, refusing to panic or waste the ball if there isn't an obvious option.
    • 12' Long ball from Puyol is nodded down by Zlatan Ibrahimovic but Osasuna clear.
    • 11' Aranda is called offside after he was played through following a slip by Keita. Very very close...
    • 10' Osasuna with a rare attack as Aranda gets in down the right, he's got the legs on Abidal but the Frenchman gets back across and forced Aranda to shank his shot well wide.
    • 9' Messi on the right, cutting inside and finding Xavi but Busquets looks backwards and Barca have to start again.
    • 7' Barcelona back in possession as they take a patient approach to this match.
    • 6' Juanfran with a dribble down the right for the hosts, winning a throw off Abidal.
    • 5' Iniesta gets in down the left but Azpilicueta closes him down.
    • 4' Osasuna have barely touched the ball thus far as Barca stroke it about.
    • 3' Barca with most of the early possession, unsurprisingly. Iniesta takes a little knock but runs it off.
    • 1' Match underway in Pamplona!!

  1. ronaldo better than messi

    From daniel_ong7, on Sat 7 Nov 4:33PM

  2. No. Messi and Zlatan are the best!

    From derr, on Mon 2 Nov 5:46PM

  3. Stupid own goal.... and MESSI is better than RONALDO­ idiot -

    From rapidz4ak, on Sun 1 Nov 6:44PM

  4. I'm no Barcelona fan, but the Mexican Marquez has­ to go. He's too old to be playing on a high quality­ club like this. He should be at Wolverhampton, or­ Udinese, or PSG. Pique is a good defender, don't­ blame him for the own goal. Wrong place at the wrong­ time, that's all. Again, Marquez should have dealt­ with it.

    From tottenspursfc, on Sun 1 Nov 5:22PM

  5. Im happy about you Saidamir and p.s we consider people­ like you in here facking retarted muppet kids... Who­ haven't grown up at all since they were born and­ they all way to stupid. I'm sorry about you :(((

    From eurosportcouk, on Sun 1 Nov 1:08PM

  6. im a full blood madrid fan but BARCA have to do­ something about marques i mean like HORRIBLE defending­ and NO1 blame pique it wasnt his fault it was marques

    From masicerko, on Sun 1 Nov 11:51AM

    From Tony, on Sun 1 Nov 8:44AM

  9. stupid pique

    From Imran, on Sun 1 Nov 8:27AM

  10. stupid pique

    From Imran, on Sun 1 Nov 8:27AM

  11. I usually don't associate in this because i like­ being quiet about stuff like this BUT NOW i think it­ will be right for me to say that PEP GUADIOLA has a­ racist behaviour--- reason; HE SHOULD TELL WE THE­ SUPPORTERS why is he not playing YAYA TOURE anymore­ rather than playing sergio busquess, i've got a­ feeling that soon he will ask him to leave just like he­ did to the great SAMUEL ETO'O. We all saw how nice­ our beloved TOURE played last season in different­ positions and how he could support both defensive and­ attacking mid-fields

    From tecguy, on Sun 1 Nov 5:40AM

  12. what a mess by marquez. any player of his inferior­ calibre does not deserve a place in the barca team

    From faris, on Sun 1 Nov 1:04AM

  13. It was just a mistake, but we are on top again!!!!!­ FANS OF MADRID BE SILENT!!!!!

    From misho_tsero, on Sat 31 Oct 11:03PM

  14. btw for those who dont know what i mean by­ ''Real players'', i mean Real fans.....­ we fans are also considered as players, coz we play a­ big role in supporting the team

    From Saidamir, on Sat 31 Oct 10:43PM

  15. well done Pique, keep it up like that and u wud be­ loved by Real players like me....:D dont score a lot of­ own goals only 1 or 2 each game, unless u wanna score a­ hat-trick of own goals...hahahahahahaha shame!!!!!!!
