It will be all to play for in three weeks time at the Estadi Olimpic Lluis Companys as Barcelona and Napoli played out a 1-1 draw in the first leg of their Champions League round of 16 tie in Naples.
Xavi Hernandez's side made a brilliant start to the match, and they forced Alex Meret into several saves. Lamine Yamal, Robert Lewandowski and Ilkay Gundogan all had efforts saved by the Napoli goalkeeper as they failed to find a breakthrough in the first 45 minutes.
However, they managed to open the scoring early in the second half. Pedri played the ball into Lewandowski, who turned excellently into the Napoli box first shooting beyond Meret for his fourth goal in as many games for Barcelona.
It was well deserved for Barcelona to be in front, but unfortunately for Xavi and his players, their advantage did not last long, as Victor Osimhen scored the equaliser. The Nigerian striker showed great play to keep out Inigo Martinez, before firing past Marc-Andre Ter Stegen.
Barcelona They will be disappointed not to have secured a lead for the second leg, but are still in a good position to book their place at the quarter-final stage. A home win is all that is needed.
