Man City

Follow every kick of Manchester City's trip to Camp Nou with our dedicated live score updates from the charity fixture.

The atmosphere was already building and has gone up a notch as the Barcelona keepers have come out to warm up. Barcelona have enjoyed the majority of possession and have created three clear chances, but City are looking to calm things down a little now. He starts, as expected, and that is a big call in itself from Guardiola. Barcelona have sold 87,000 tickets tonight and there will be around 1,500 away fans in the stadium. City execs have dismissed any suggestion this week that the player would leave when questions have been shouted in their direction and it is a show of strength to play him here tonight from the beginning. This has pre-season vibes from City and well it might given most of the players have not seen much action in the opening weeks of the campaign. Have your say in the comments section below. They'll all be hungry and eager to make a case for more first-team involvement going forward. City have been on the back foot, but Stefan Ortega has looked very accomplished both with his hands and feet. At the other end, Foden has shown one or two neat touches during the opening minutes. That was a gift of a goal for Alvarez, but it was more good work from Sergio Gomez, who has started very well at left-back. He leaned back a little on that one, but in truth it was not a million miles away.

Kalvin Phillips, Sergio Gomez and Rico Lewis all start against Barcelona as Pep Guardiola utilises his squad to full effect.
