Ten minutes later, the French star got injured and was replaced by Hugo Ekitike. Even Sergio Ramos could not finish the first half, he was replaced in the 32nd minute by Sanchez, feeling pain.

Fabian Ruiz opened the scoring in the 55th minute, Lionel Messi (who had a goal disallowed by VAR in the 35th minute) added it in the 72nd minute. The hosts reduced the deficit in the 89th minute through Nordin, but only two minutes later, Zaire – Emery finished the table 3-1.
