Hello and welcome to LIVE text updates of the Champions League Group C clash between Barcelona and Manchester City at the Nou Camp. For many observers this is a battle that will go a long way to deciding who will top this pool heading into the knockout stage with Pep Guardiola, returning to the club he served so majestically as a player and coach, undoubtedly the headline act.

    90+2'
    FT: Barcelona 4-0 Man City. An unhappy return to the Nou Camp for Pep Guardiola as Messi hits a treble to put the Catalans well clear at the top of Group C. Neymar missed a penalty but made amends with a late fourth. Both teams finished with 10-men but the red card for Claudio Bravo at 1-0 proved crucial. Mathieu received a second yellow at 3-0 but by that time the game was over.

    Barca surge forward again... but Neymar's pass is a poor one and City survive. It was on for a fifth there.

    Two minutes added. City have been thumped.

    GOAL! Neymar makes amends for his penalty miss, taking a pass from Messi and dancing into the area before tucking a low shot beyond Caballero.

    City just want this to be over now.

    PENALTY SAVE! Neymar takes an eternity with his run up but can't psyche out Caballero who dives to his right and pushes it to safety.
    86'
    Messi slaloms into the area and goes down under a challenge from Otamendi... PENALTY TO BARCA.
    85'
    City could have been truly hammered here on chances in the second half - but they have been their own worst enemy. It's not been vintage Barca by any means, just terrible defending and decision-making from the visitors.
    84'
    Another match ball on its way to the Messi household. Wonder if he has a room or two for them?
    82'
    SAVE! Caballero makes a point-blank save to deny Neymar at the back post. City's defence nowhere to be seen.
    81'
    City still pressing for a goal here.

    Lots of niggly fouls now as the game continues to stretch.

    City still have one change to make. It's 10 v 10 - why not put Aguero on?

    BARCA RED CARD! Crazy challenge from Mathieu. Having just been booked he launches into a sliding challenge on the wing and upends Sterling. It's a second yellow and he's off!
