00:00the

00:02Less than two months on from their last meeting two of the most famous names in the European game go head-to-head once more

00:10Another nine goal extravaganza is clearly too much to expect

00:15But there's January and has seven Champions League goals this season

00:19Lewandowski have combined for 58 goals between them already this season, 17 of them in the

00:29Champions League.

00:32And we're almost ready and it's the home side preparing to get us underway.

00:50Nobody scored more goals in Europe's top five leagues than Robert Lewandowski this season.

01:00What a setting for a big Champions League night, the perfect stage for stars to shine.

01:08And we're underway in Lisbon.

01:15Homeside in their traditional red and white change strip for Barcelona this evening as

01:20the hosts venture forward straight away.

01:22Oh, and almost a sensational start there from Atacolu inside the penalty area.

01:30Well it was a nine-goal thriller.

01:32Quickly dispossessed, relieved of possession as Benfica look to come piling forward once

01:37again.

01:38And your body's in the penalty area in the shot on the turn from Leandro Valero.

01:46Great start for Bruno Lages' team.

01:49And in the Liga Portugal, three points behind the leader Sporting with a game in hand.

01:56And on the front foot straight away here in this first leg.

02:04This is Pau Kubasi forward and via the yoke collected here by Dani Olmo.

02:11That was really nicely done and Pedri sends the ball on its way.

02:16Lewandowski waits in the middle.

02:17Here comes Rafinha.

02:20Back out to Dani Olmo who sends it wide.

02:23Well, you can't take your eyes off this one.

02:29Pedri's delivery a little too long for Lewandowski.

02:38Sheer determination does.

02:41Barging into Coutinho, Pedri.

02:45Into the centre he goes.

02:46Almost there.

02:47Lewandowski.

02:48Magnificent double, triple save from Anatoly Trubin.

02:59Great attacking play here from Barcelona.

03:01Olmo denied, Lewandowski denied and Lamine Amal as well, all in the space of a few seconds.

03:08It remains goalless, just.

03:14Two old pros there, Lewandowski and Otamendi.

03:17And now surging, powering up to the penalty area Pavlidis who's challenged right on the

03:23edge of the box.

03:24It's a red card, a straight red card, young team mate Pau Kubasi, but look at this here.

03:33Kubasi with the challenge.

03:35Standing in front of and off to the side of Barca's defensive wall, it's Coutinho for

03:41Benfica.

03:43Saved and headed wide by Pavlidis as it spun his way.

03:47Coutinho with a terrific free kick, Szczesny equaled to it.

04:01The breakthrough here against the ten men of Barcelona, who've been very impressive

04:05as a ten since Kubasi's red card.

04:10Schilderup, across it goes, here's a chance, Szczesny's there again, this time it's Aktokoglu

04:16once more.

04:17How good to get the ball past Wojciech Szczesny this evening.

04:24Aktokoglu denied for the second time in the opening 45 minutes by Barcelona.

04:34That'll do it for the first half.

04:37No goals but plenty of incident and action.

04:47It's the ten men of Barcelona against the eleven of Benfica.

04:51Barcelona in black tonight, getting us underway at the start of the second half.

04:55Still the away tag is made by Inigo Martínez.

04:59Valde with a chance to clear.

05:02Comes off the head of Araujo.

05:08Just spread the play away to Schilderup.

05:12Faced by Jule Koundé, great support here.

05:16Camiros across and Pavlidis over the top.

05:21First good chance of the second half.

05:24And it falls to Benfica and to their top scorer, Vangelis Pavlidis.

05:37Goal.

05:56Austens with the head up.

05:58Got up the head of Robert Lewandowski.

06:01Kuczu's pass is a good one.

06:04Schilderup backtracking rapidly here now.

06:07Schilderup, Austens!

06:09Great save Szczesny and then just hooks it away.

06:13With Pavlidis waiting to pounce.

06:16More brilliant goalkeeping from Wojciech Szczesny.

06:20Couldn't find a way past Dahl.

06:24And Antonio Silva's given it away.

06:26Will he be made to pay for that?

06:28Oh, he certainly will!

06:30It's a big, big mistake by the Benfica defender.

06:35And Rafinha gleefully dispatched it into the back of the Portuguese.

06:46Kuczu away to the far side.

06:48He'll take the return.

06:50And Austens!

06:52Too close to Szczesny.

06:55Kuczu has gone forward on the left.

06:58Austens.

07:00Here's Rago.

07:02Looking for the run of Dahl.

07:04Good play from Dahl.

07:06Really nicely done.

07:07Looks to set up a chance.

07:08Doesn't quite fall.

07:10At the feet of Vangelis Pavlidis.

07:13Excellent defending by Ronaldo Raojo.

07:16Inside the last quarter of an hour.

07:27João Rago.

07:30Another chance here.

07:32On the turn!

07:33After Colu.

07:35But they're not quite there yet.

07:38Dahl goes short.

07:40Sánchez can't get it over.

07:43The acrobatic efforts there.

07:45Under the circumstances, it's been an outstanding effort.

07:51But Benfica looking for one late chance.

07:53Doesn't quite fall.

07:55Benfica looking for one late chance.

07:57Doesn't fall for Arthur Cabral.

07:59Not very quick to get out of the way.

08:01It's Ronaldo Sánchez!

08:03And it's a great save again.

08:05From Wojciech Szczesny.

08:09Here's the shot.

08:10And the save.

08:11It was straight at.

08:15The block made by Valde.

08:21There goes the final whistle.

08:25From the ten men of Barcelona.
