GOAL! Olympiacos have a late consolation!
Nikolaou, who earlier scored an own-goal, out-jumps Paulinho as a corner delivery is swung in, and he powers a header past ter Stegen.
A great moment for the 19-year-old.

87'
A ball is played through for Suarez, but Proto is off his line quickly to hack it clear. The Olympiacos goalkeeper has kept the score respectable this evening.
86'
The subsequent corner finds Paulinho whose header is straight into the arms of Proto.
85'
Barca launch a counter-attack, they have four against three, the ball is worked to Messi whose shot is well blocked by the feet of Proto.
83'
Lovely exchange between Suarez and Messi but the latter blazes a shot well over the bar.
82'
These two sides meet once again on October 31 when Barcelona travel to Greece.
80'
Decent chance for Barcelona to further extend their advantage as they win a free-kick on the edge of the box, but Messi slightly over-cooks his cross and the ball goes out for a goal-kick.
79'
Busquets goes off to a rousing reception as he is replaced by Andre Gomes for the final 10 minutes.

78'
Olympiacos win only their second corner of the evening but ter Stegen is alert to punch the delivery clear.
76'
Barca's decision to buy Paulinho raised eyebrows, particularly in England where he struggled at Tottenham, but the signing has been completely justified; the Brazilian has slotted in effortlessly in midfield - and he has enjoyed another impressive game.
74'
Barca seem content to keep possession as they wind the clock down. They have a number of key fixtures on the horizon, beginning with a home match against Malaga on Saturday.
73'
Fortounis scored a dramatic late winner for Olympiacos at Panianios at the weekend, but it is very unlikely he will enjoy similar fate this evening...
71'
Third and final change from Olympiacos as Odjidja is replaced by Konstantinos Fortounis in attack.

CHANCES!
Paulinho's shot is well saved by Proto who then makes a fantastic reactive save to deny Messi.
67'
Pique's sending off on the stroke of half time had the potential to transform this game, but in truth, Barca have actually played better with 10 men.
66'
Barcelona make their second change as Iniesta is now replaced by Ivan Rakitic.
Minutes ago, Olympiacos brought on Felipe Pardo.
