Obviously most of you guys are hoping Liverpool fail but to be honest they have matched Barca and probably shaded the game.

Barca are lucky to be winning, they don't deserve it from the game up until now.
Barca seemed to be trying to contain the game and avoid conceding. Very little commitment to getting forward.
Dangerous game, but Liverpool didn't do enough to test ter Stegen and now Messi's done what Messi does.
Still time to nick an away goal, though. 2-1 would be a decent result.
 
More possession because they've closed down well i.e. worked harder. Combined with Barca giving the ball away a little too easily when not under pressure. But the Barca defence have not been carved open. Just because I hold an opposite opinion to you, does not mean I am being bias mate <ok>

2-0

True, though I'd argue the possession point (generally, not in this game specifically). I'd have thought you have to work harder and close down more if you don't have the ball to be honest.
 
Barca should drop off and defend the 2 goals now, and entice the RS even further out, leaving them open for the counter.
