Champions League: Barcelona vs Slavia Prague match report
Just like ir previous meeting in Prague, where FC Barcelona mand to scrape away with a win, game was played at a relentless pace. Slavia Prague continued pressing hard and were t afraid to send men forward. Meanwhile, home side never quite mand to get into ir comfort zone and although both sides h plenty of chances and h goals ruled out for offside, it all ended in a stalemate. Lionel Messi was at his usual best and almost scored in first half after he showed some quick feet before seeing his shot rattled off post. Furr frustration came after break when Arturo Vidal h a goal wiped out for offside. Slavia Prague's goalkeeper Ondrej Kolar h a fine game in Catalonia, particularly when he denied Messi from point-blank range off an exquisite Ansu Fati pass. He might have single-handedly kept his side alive in tie.
