Update: Date: 17:26 BST Title: Get Involved Content: #bbcfootball, WhatsApp on 03301231826 or text 81111 (UK only, standard message rates apply) This game has the men's FA Cup final feel about it. Barca (Man City) attacking/controlling the game, Arsenal (Palace) could nick this on the counter. Nemo Update: Date: 25 mins Title: 'Barca would've been a little worried' Content: Arsenal 0-0 Barcelona Emma SandersBBC Sport women's football news reporter at Estadio Jose Alvalade A huge moment for Arsenal. They have definitely caused Barcelona problems and rattled them a little bit. Frida Maanum did look offside straight away but Barca would have been a little worried. Update: Date: 17:25 BST Title: 'Warning sign for Barcelona' Content: Arsenal 0-0 Barcelona Izzy ChristiansenFormer England midfielder on BBC Radio 5 Live at Estadio Jose Alvalade It is really good offensive final third play from Arsenal. Apart from the offside. A brilliant run, but Frida Maanum failed to time it later. That is a massive warning sign for Barcelona. They have not been at the races. Update: Date: 24 mins Title: Post Content: Arsenal 0-0 Barcelona Jen BeattieFormer Arsenal defender on TNT Sports To the naked eye, I thought she might've been offside. It just goes to show the uncertainly those runs in behind can cause. Update: Date: 23 mins Title: DISALLOWED GOAL - Arsenal Content: Arsenal 0-0 Barcelona Arsenal think they have taken the lead when Frida Maanum gets free on the right wing and her low cross is diverted into her own net by Barcelona defender Irene Paredes. But Paredes is the most relieved person in Lisbon as an offside check shows Maanum had gone too early when collecting the ball. A let off for Barcelona. Update: Date: 17:19 BST Title: Get Involved Content: #bbcfootball, WhatsApp on 03301231826 or text 81111 (UK only, standard message rates apply) Arsenal doing everything so far that Chelsea didn't do. They have to take their chances though. Dave, London Update: Date: 19 mins Title: 'Got to pick the moments to be aggressive' Content: Arsenal 0-0 Barcelona Izzy ChristiansenFormer England midfielder on BBC Radio 5 Live at Estadio Jose Alvalade Arsenal at their best are when they're aggressive. With the heat you have got to pick the moments to be aggressive. You cannot go at 70% you have got to go at 100%. That's where Arsenal have got to manage the game. Update: Date: 18 mins Title: Post Content: Arsenal 0-0 Barcelona A dangerous corner is swung into the Arsenal box from the right by Mapi Leon and goalkeeper Daphne van Domselaar starts to come for the ball but doesn't get there, and is relieved to see team-mate Alessia Russo make a vital clearing header. Update: Date: 17:15 BST Title: Post Content: Arsenal 0-0 Barcelona Emma SandersBBC Sport women's football news reporter at Estadio Jose Alvalade Aitana Bonmati was annoyed with herself and was gesturing she should have curled it into the top corner instead. Barcelona haven't really controlled the game yet which they are not used to. Update: Date: 16 mins Title: 'Beautiful play from Barcelona' Content: Arsenal 0-0 Barcelona Izzy ChristiansenFormer England midfielder on BBC Radio 5 Live at Estadio Jose Alvalade Again, beautiful play from Barcelona. The chop from Aitana Bonmati, she shifts it onto her left foot. The covering defender, Chloe Kelly sliding across to block it. Update: Date: 17:14 BST Title: 'More of that' Content: Arsenal 0-0 Barcelona Jen BeattieFormer Arsenal defender on TNT Sports On the Foord chance... Foord is really unlucky not to get that goalward. What a ball, what a run, more of that from Arsenal. That's a huge confidence boost, knowing they can threaten the backline of Barcelona. Update: Date: 15 mins Title: Post Content: Arsenal 0-0 Barcelona Aitana Bonmati is proving a real handful for the Arsenal defence. She jinks inside her marker inside the penalty area, but Chloe Kelly has tracked back well and is able to get a vital block in, with the ball tamely looping up into the hands of Daphne van Domselaar. Update: Date: 14 mins Title: Post Content: Arsenal 0-0 Barcelona Better from Arsenal. Kim Little plays an angled pass to the back post and Caitlin Foord has space to either head at goal or nod it across for a team-mate, but in the end she does neither with the header drifting harmlessly wide. That was a chance. Update: Date: 13 mins Title: Post Content: Arsenal 0-0 Barcelona Emma SandersBBC Sport women's football news reporter at Estadio Jose Alvalade Barcelona fans have just started chanting Claudia Pina's name after Arsenal supporters booed her going down following a challenge from Chloe Kelly. It gives the defending champions a bit of a boost and Mariona Caldentey - of all people - was almost robbed in the box twice. Update: Date: 12 mins Title: 'You can't get away with it' Content: Arsenal 0-0 Barcelona Jen BeattieFormer Arsenal defender on TNT Sports Square balls across the box - you can't get away with it - especially not against this team. Update: Date: 11 mins Title: 'Bizarre from Arsenal' Content: Arsenal 0-0 Barcelona Izzy ChristiansenFormer England midfielder on BBC Radio 5 Live at Estadio Jose Alvalade Bizarre from Arsenal at the back. They tried to clear the ball three times. They're trying to pass it out of their box. That's how you don't play against Barcelona. Update: Date: 10 mins Title: Post Content: Arsenal 0-0 Barcelona Nerves in the Arsenal defence. They play a square pass inside their own penalty area and nearly get punished. Mariona Caldentey then loses the ball 18 yards out, but Arsenal somehow manage to smuggle the ball clear. Update: Date: 17:09 BST Title: Get Involved Content: #bbcfootball, WhatsApp on 03301231826 or text 81111 (UK only, standard message rates apply) Arsenal haven't conceded yet which is better than Chelsea in 2021 Matt Update: Date: 9 mins Title: Post Content: Arsenal 0-0 Barcelona Panic in the Arsenal defence as goalkeeper Daphne van Domselaar has to come out of her penalty area and try to clear her lines. The clearance is unconvincing, but luckily for Arsenal it doesn't land at a red and blue shirt. Update: Date: 8 mins Title: 'Overloading the wide area' Content: Arsenal 0-0 Barcelona Izzy ChristiansenFormer England midfielder on BBC Radio 5 Live at Estadio Jose Alvalade I have already identified an issue with Arsenal. Out of possession Barcelona are overloading the wide area. That's how Barcelona are escaping Arsenal's press.

Duggan and Beattie set for Chelsea WSL Matchday Live
Former City stars Toni Duggan and Jen Beattie will be special guests for our Matchday Live show against Chelsea. City welcome the Londoners to the Etihad Stadium on Sunday 23 March with kick-off set for 14:30 (UK). It's the third successive match between the sides in the space of eight days after meeting in the League Cup final and UEFA Women's Champions League. CITY v CHELSEA | GET YOUR ETIHAD TICKETS Chelsea drew first blood with a 2-1 win in the League Cup, but City responded with a 2-0 triumph in the first leg of our European quarter-final four days later. It all points to a thrilling third encounter, with both sides desperate for an important three points in the Barclays Women's Super League. To mark the occasion, a special Matchday Live show will be broadcast on each of our digital channels, with Duggan and Beattie offering their expert insight as part of it. The pair made just under 200 appearances between them for City, winning every available domestic honour between them in the process. As part of that, the former City duo were key to our 2016 double-winning team which went unbeaten across the entire campaign. They'll be back at the Etihad Stadium around one hour before kick-off to preview the game and share some memorable stories from their time at the Club, before a half-time debrief and detailed post-match analysis. As always, Matchday Live is available on all our digital platforms and offers a unique City-centric flavour to your match build-up with plenty of interesting analysis and laughs along the way.
