HALF-TIME: BARCELONA 4-0 ATHLETIC CLUB
And that is that for an incredible first half. Athletic Club were the better side for the opening 20 minutes but after starting on the front foot, they opted to sit off and let Barca have the ball.
And it was their downfall.
Flick’s side have been irresistible at times and deservedly lead at half-time.
Stick around for the second half though, stranger things have happened. (And you wouldn’t want to say you missed out on the best comeback ever would you?)
