We're underway at the Camp Nou, where Barcelona are hosting Real Madrid in the sixth Clasico of the season. With the situation at the top of La Liga firmly in the visitors' favour, this represents Barcelona's best chance to get back into the title race. A win here for the home side would make the remainder of the season very, very interesting.
Anyway, Real Madrid have kicked us off, giving the ball away at basically the first opportunity. Incredibly, Barcelona give the ball straight back to the visitors, forcing Carles Puyol into a neat piece of work at the edge of his area. The Catalans are able to push upfield, and win a pair of free kicks in the centre circle. Not much going on yet, but we've only had a few minutes of play - about the most interesting thing that's happened is a long pass from Andres Iniesta that went flying out of play for a goal kick.
