Good evening and welcome to LIVE coverage of Celta against Barcelona from La Liga. This one a 9pm kick-off at the Estadio Balaídos.

There goes the final whistle! A 3-0 win for Barcelona. All too easy on the night.

Another fine stop by Yoel to make the save from Messi, who somehow hasn't scored this evening. That is a rarity.

Real Madrid host Sevilla tomorrow night. Big night for them holding a lead of nine points over them now.

Celta haven't done too badly this evening, but lack a bit of quality in key areas.

Messi on the run for Barca, but is crowded out of it by a number of blue shirts.

Chance for Tello, but he smacks the ball into the side netting. Messi keeping quiet. Even if would probably have looked for a return pass.

Golden chance for Mina, but he sees his shot come back off Montoya before careering over the bar. Looked like a certain goal for Celta.

Final change of the night then for Barca, but work well and truly done for the evening.

Alexis Sanchez departs the scene to be replaced by Christian Tello for the visiting side.

Another mesmerising run by Messi. Should perhaps have played in Pedro there, but Yoel makes a superb diving stop. We remain at 3-0 here.

Messi pops up to fire a shot at goal from 18 yards. Yoel dives to make the stop. Solid stop by the home goalkeeper it must be said.

Barcelona hosting Espanyol in the Catalan derby in their next Liga outing on Friday evening. That should be a tasty enough encounter one suspects.

14 wins and four draws in all competitions now for Martino since he arrived at the Camp Nou during the close season.

Gerardo Martino looking fairly relaxed. Must be happy enough with his lot this evening. Has been a worthwhile outing from this Barca side.

Pedro flashes a shot at goal with Yoel well beaten. Shots comes off the face of the bar before spinning over. So close to a fourth goal.

Montoya to Iniesta. Barca going short as is their want, but Sanchez gives the ball away for no apparent reason.

Rafinha arrives with a header. Comes off a Barca shirt for a corner, but far too much juice on that delivery and Barca can carry the ball away from their penalty area.

Free-kick goes Celta's way after a late challenge by Busquets, who has not been giving too many fouls away this evening. Another free-kick chance 30 yards out.

Fabregas departs the scene for Barca with Iniesta arriving for the last 20 minutes or so.

The relatively unknown figure of Andres Iniesta is getting dusted down for Barcelona. Wonder who he is? He is getting ready for action.
