    Levante looked quite solid early on, but Barcelona have since opened up their defence with pace from deep, and that has proved too much for the away side. Dembele and Coutinho tearing them apart.

    All of a sudden, this looks like it could get quite ugly for Levante. They haven't had luck on their side, but it's fair to say that Barcelona are on top and are looking very dangerous now.

    That last goal might even go down as an own goal. Was Dembele's scuffed shot on target? Or did the touch from Aitor, who dived beyond the ball, make all the difference? Strange.

    GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL! Barcelona 2 (31 mins - Ousmane Dembele) Levante 0 (3-2 on aggregate). Another highly fortunate goal! And it's Dembele again! Messi played him in on goal, the Frenchman rounded Aitor in goal, but then scuffed his shot and somehow the goalkeeper dived beyond the ball! What was that?!

    How did that go in? Nobody's really sure, not least Dembele. Did he even take a shot? Cabaco should have done much better with his clearance. It was a calamity from all parties.

    GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL! Barcelona 1 (29 mins - Ousmane Dembele) Levante 0 (2-2 on aggregate). Barcelona are ahead on the night and ahead in the tie! They got more than a generous share of luck with that goal, though. Messi threaded through Dembele, but Cabaco then made his clearance off the French winger and the ball bounces into the net.

    Now Arthur shoots! The Brazilian midfielder lines up the effort from about 25 yards out, but it's off target and Aitor is quite pleased just to watch that drift wide of the post. He wasn't worried.
    27'
    Another Barcelona chance! Coutinhos threaded down the left channel, passes back for Messi who bursts into the box. He then crosses for Vidal, who heads into the ground and over.
    26'
    Vidal heads over! Now the Chilean midfielder comes close. Vidal climbed highest to get on the end of a corner kick into the box, but he couldn't get up high enough and heads over.

    What a save! That could have been the opener for Barcelona. Messi shoots across goal, with the ball heading for the far corner of the net, but Aitor makes the save to deny him. Goes behind for a corner.
    22'
    Just feels like Barcelona are starting to crank things up. They are upping the pace and intensity of their play, but Levante are holding form at the back. Well organised, defensively.
    21'
    Earlier on I said that Levante wouldn't come to Camp Nou and play for a draw. Well, I've been proven wrong a little bit because the away side are playing quite conservatively.
    20'
    Just a reminder that as things stand it would be Levante moving into the quarter finals of the Copa del Rey over Barcelona. There's still a lot of football to be played, though.
    19'
    Murillo played in the first leg for Barcelona. He struggled in the first half, but Valverde has stuck with him for the second leg and has looked more solid early on in this match.
    18'
    Levante look fairly comfortable at the moment. They will be quite pleased with the opening 20 minutes or so. They haven't faced the Barca onslaught they must have been expecting.
    17'
    Fired over! That was an opportunity for Coutinho, who drives to the edge of the opposition penalty area, but his strike was a little wild and the ball flashes high and wide.
    16'
    That was a very nice strike from Messil, and any closer it might well have beaten Aitor. But the distance it was struck from allowed the Levante goalkeeper to get over to make the save.
    15'
    Tipped away! Messi wins a freekick. The foul was the best part of 30 yards out, but even from that distance the Barcelona number 10 manages to test the goalkeeper, who tips it away.
    14'
    Note that Rakitic is starting for Barcelona this evening. The Croatian midfielder is very rarely rested by Valverde. Does he not believe anyone can step into his shoes as a deputy?
