Barcelona were more dominant in Kiev than they had been in Camp Nou against the same opposition despite the absence of Messi and several starters.

Ronald Koeman has decided to hand Leo Messi a rest, a decision that could be extended to prolong the player's career as he seeks to adapt his game.

Alfredo Relaño gives his thoughts on Gareth Bale's seemingly imminent return to Tottenham Hotspur after seven years at Real Madrid.
