Casado in for De Jong. Fermin in Ferran. 

From the free-kick, Olmo went for the pace and missed the target by inches. 

Yellow card for Abqar for a foul on Lewandowski. 

The free-kick allowed Getafe to have a ball lofted inside the box. But, Joan Garcia was brave to call for it and grab the ball. 

Yellow card for Christensen for a foul. 

Martin's cross from the left fell inside the box and Lewa chest trapped the ball and quickly went for the volley. He missed the target, though. 

Kounde could not clear the ball properly, and Munoz, the former Real Madrid man, had a chance to hit the back of the net.

However, he could not get the job done with a volley. 

As expected, we are going to see a change from FC Barcelona. Marcus Rashford will be replacing Raphinha. 

Getafe made three changes: Davinci, Kamara and Munoz came in for Mayoral, Djene, and Martin.

Barcelona lead 2-0 at the halftime with both goals from Ferran Torres. 

Lots of fouls and yellow cards in the first half, and we might see a few changes from both teams in the second half. 

See you after the break.

Raphinha and Getafe players are going at each other with both benches coming into the party as well. 

It started with a foul on Kounde.

2 minutes added to the half-time.

Yellow card to Getafe head coach Jose Bordalas and someone from the Barcelona bench for dissent.

He nearly got his hat-trick

Yellow card for Liso for a foul on Kounde.

In the counterattack, everyone thought Raphinha was offside. Everyone had stopped, and Ferran Torres sent the ball past the goalkeeper for the second goal of the night.

The long ball had found Raphinha inside Barcelona's own half, and that is why it was not offside.

Yellow card for Raphinha.

Lopez and Pedri linked up on the left, and Pedri's cross was a bit too quick for Lewandowski just to have a touch from the middle of the goal.

Raphinha makes a horrible challenge coming from behind, and the Gefate coach appeals for the yellow card. However, no caution has been given.

Perfect team goal from Barcelona. 

De Jong to Raphinha, and the Brazilian found Dani Olmo with a delicious pass. 

Olmo backheeled from the right and Ferran came in running to hit the back of the net. His third goal of the season in the league. 

FC Barcelona 1-0 Getafe

Pedri wins another for the hosts but Baarcelona's short corner policy has not worked yet.

Dani Olmo is fouled again in the middle of the pitch and we have had a few stop star in the game so far.

Milla tried to float the ball inside the box but Kounde was there to block the ball.

Opening for Barcelona as Pedri played to the left and Gerrard Martin found Ferran with the cross. 

However, Ferran could not get a proper connection inside the box.

Yellow card for Mario Martin for a foul on Kounde. Free-kick from a dangerous position for Barcelona.

4 minutes have been added. 

Haaland goes off to a standing ovation as he is replaced by Oscar Bob. 

Silva is replaced by Ake. 

Burno's attempted shot went through the defender,s and Casemiro, who was there at the near post, could not deflect it into the goal.

Amad did well on the right to dribble past defenders and enter the box. His pass for Mbeumo got defelcted away for a corner. 

This time from the centre, Mbeumo went for a left-footed curling attempt. However, it did not curl enough for a goal.

On the right, from the close range, Mbeumo tries his luck. But the angle was always tight.

It should have been 4-0!

From the edge of the box, Ugarte takes his chance with a shot, but misses the target.

HE IS BACK! HE IS BACK! HE IS BACK!

Erling Haaland makes it 3-0 for City. 

Mishap from United at the halfway mark, and Silva served it on a plate for Haaland to go one-on-one and take it deep before sending it inside the goal.

Haaland was running away with the ball again. 

Luke Shaw had to take the chance to tackle him from behind and win the ball back.

Haaland was just inches away from making it 3-0. 

Bayindir was able to make the half save but the ball evantually hit the post and Silva could not tap it inside the goal. 

Inevitable! 

Erling Haaland scores for Manchester City. 

Foden to Doku and Doku found Haaland making a run inside the box. Shaw could not stop Haaland and neither could Bayindir.

Manchester City 2-0 Manchester United. 

United have tried to link up the play from the left. But, the execution in the final third has lacked so far for them.

Drogu's cross from the left is blocked and deflected for a United corner by Dias.

No changes for either team. 

City head into the tunnel with a 1-0 lead, and a well-deserved lead, you have to say.

Foden's seventh derby goal is the separator at the moment.

Haaland toe-tapped the ball at the edge of the box for the youngster. 

After recieveing the ball on his left foot, he went for a right-footed shot. 

He missed the target though. 

Doku had lost the ball on the left but Rodri was able to win it back and then looked for Silva with a through pass. 

However, his pass was blocked. 

Foul by Khusanov and United have a free-kick from a good position. 

Sesko tries to lob a ball from inside the box, but the Italian had came out early to make the save. 

Good idea from United to break the off-side trap. 

But, Mbeumo was just an inch offside there. However, his shot was not on target as well. 

Doku with another move. This time from the left. 

His cutback had found Reijnders inside the box. However, his side-footed attempt went straight to Bayindir.

Phil Foden, for the seventh time in his career, scores a Manchester Derby goal for the City.

Doku's flying ball from the left nearly made Amad score a Cristiano-ish side flying side volley. 

However, he could not connect that shot.

Haaland has looked hungry from the word go, and he nearly made the ball flick over Bayindir, who looked a bit nervous there. 

Benjamin Sesko, on his first Premier League start, takes aim from 25 yards and his left-footed effort brings a save from City's debutant goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma.

Within the first 25 seconds of the match, Haaland makes an attempt from the close range with his left foot. 

He misses the target. It was a close angle though.

Job done for Real Madrid and Xabi Alonso. 

Three points to start the season. Mbappe with the goal from the spot. 

Osasuna would not be disappointed either, as they have been able to avoid a big defeat at the Bernabeu. The red card at the end could have been avoided as well.

A direct red card has been shown to Bretones for a foul on Gonzalo on the byline. Unnecessary from the Osasuna midfielder.

Although he has given the ball away a few times, he has been fearless and quick to make movements. Future.

Out: Guler

Mastantuono's left-footed attempt from left, from close range, was saved by Herera.

After defending for a long time, they are finally looking to score that goal.

Mastantuono's corner had found Tchouaméni. But, his headed attempt missed the far post by a few inches.

But, Torro came in between and deflected it for a corner.

No changes from either team as Osasuna get us away in the second half. 

Target achieved for Osasuna as they have been able to head into the tunnel without conceding a goal. 

They defended deep and worked hard to frustrate the Los Blancos. 

Mbappe had a few chances, Vinicius too, Huijsen took a few shots, while Militao also was on target once. But, still, they have not been able to break the shackles. 

Real Madrid 0-0 Osasuna at halftime.

Bretones makes a good block as Mbappe's spectacular acrobatic attempt from close range was negotiated well. 

Boyomo had pushed down Vinicius inside the box as he went for the ball. 

But the push was not that hard to call as a penalty. 

Huijsen takes another chance as there were no Real Madrid players inside the box.

He took the chance but was not on target. 

For the first time in the match, Osasuna had the chance to go for the goal. 

Militao's clearance was not good, and it fell right for Budimir to go for the goal. 

However, from the edge of the box, a bit left, he missed the target. 

Vinicius has now taken Mbappe's spot and went for a shot from left, towards the far post. 

He missed the shot completely.

From the right of the box, Mbappe targeted the far post with a curling effort. However, the ball did not curl enough to get into the goal. 

A warm welcome for Jude Bellingham, who is in attendance tonight. He will miss the first few weeks due to the shoulder injury.

He will have to keep making these saves. 

Real Madrid are now looking to shoot from outside the box. 

Eder Militao, from 30 meters, went for a long shot. It bounced and was swinging as well. A good dive and save from Herrera 

Vini's cutback from the byline found Mbappe. However, his turning left-footed attempt was not good enough to beat Herrera. 

It was not a good save, but it was safe. 

Real Madrid have looked to try a few different things with Huijsen coming a bit forward, Mbappe switching to the left and other things. 

But, Osasuna have been solid, brave and aggressive in defence. 

Huijsen's right-footed volley from outside the box has been dealt well by Herrera. 

The ball was going away from him and had bounced in front of him. But a well strechted dive helped him to make the save.

A perfectly timed challenge from Boyomo as he won the ball from Kylian Mbappe, who has swiftly changed the side and then tried to make a way through the defenders.

Not sure yet, but surely it is all defensive from the Osasuna team. They are looking to frustrate the Los Blancos and go goalless in the first 20 minutes.

Enough of waiting for Carreras. He goes for the goal from the left of the box with a left-footed shot. He missed the far post by a meter. 

It is not three, but five people in defence for Osasuna. Madrid are keeping the ball and waiting for a mistake from the opponent. 

Osasuna have looked to defend from the start. Although they have a high line, they have been able to stop Vinicius from making a move on the left. The have kept the back-four intact quite well.

Here we go!

It was a good game overall. Arsenal, just like last season, was great defensively. United looked good as well, but they could not find the net. 

A mistake from Bayindir helped Arsenal get the goal, and that was the game for them. 

Thank you for watching. We will see you next time. Good night. 

Last season's runners-up Arsenal start with a win as United's tough time continued. 

It was Calafiori's goal from the corner that was enough for them to seal the win. 

United did well, especially Cunha and Mbeumo. Dorgu came close to scoring when he hit the post in the first half.

United appeal for another penalty as Maguire fell down inside the box. No penalty givem 

Yellow card for Lewis-Skelly as he fouled Mbeumo.

Saka went for a powerful shot from close range. But De Ligt was there to block it. 

6 minutes added to the final time. 

United appeals for a penalty as Saliba brought down Ugarte inside the box. 

Yorro to Sesko, and Sesko's back heel had given Ugarte to go for the goal. However, he was not on target. 

Yellow card for Gabriel for dissent and time wasting.

Yellow card for Dorgu for a foul on Timber. 

In: Merino

Declan Rice with a free-kick from the edge of the box hits the side net after a deflection. He will not take the corner though as he has been subbed off. 

In: Maguire

Out: Luke Shaw

Good feet from Amad, but his shot did not have enough power to beat Raya. 

What a save from Raya!

Lovely from Cunha, who made a good run and played it out wide to Dorgu on the left. Dorgu's cross found Mbeumo inside the box, who jumped in the air to head the ball.

The ball dropped in front of Raya and was going into the goal.

However, Raya dived full streched to his left to make the save. 

In: Timber, Lewis-Skelly

Out: Calafiori, White

Ben White is down, injured and getting medical attention. Cunha believes he is wasting time. 

Brilliant ball from Cunha, and he found Mbeumo with a perfect pass. Mbeumo just could not get his shot away and was blocked by Gabriel. 

Seconds later, his acrobatic attempt missed the target. 

Double change from Amorim as Benjamin Sesko, who enters the fray alongside Manuel Ugarte, as Mason Mount and Casemiro make way.

In: Madueke, Havertz

Out: Martinelli, Gyokeres

Rice, who has been a bit quiet today, takes a chance with a long-range shot. But, he missed the target. 

Unlike his counterpart, Raya was able to punch away the incoming delivery from Bruno Fernandes from a free-kick near the left corner. 

In: Diallo

Out: Dalot

The head coach of the England men's football team is here to watch the proceedings. 

After a long pass, Gyokeres on the left had the chance to make a cutback and go for the goal. However, he could not control the ball and lost it against De Ligt. 

Luke Shaw found Mount with a cutback, and Mount's left-footed volley, which was on target, was blocked by Gabriel. 

No changes from either team.

Arsenal head into the tunnel with a 1-0 lead. It was an extremely open first half. 

Calafiori scored from a corner. Dorgu hit the post. Cunha and Mbeumo looked good so far for United. 

Lots of action to come in the second half. 

Stay tuned. 

1 minute has been added to the first 45 minutes. 

On his Premier League debut, the big signing of the season has not shone so far for Arsenal. He has lacked control and accuracy. 

Weak cross from Dorgu from the left. The cross was defended well by White. 

First yellow card of the day. Calafiori gets the yellow card for holding down Mbeumo.

Cunha has been a threat to Arsenal in the last few minutes. He has been sharp, quick and making moves.

His attempted cross from the left, close range, was deflected away by Raya. No United player was there to take the advantage though. 

Great run from Cunha as United looked to attack with a counterattack. But Cunha could not finish well as he shot directly at Raya, timidly. 

Martinelli went for a bicycle kick inside the box but could not connect the shot. 

Great start from the youngster. On the left, he made a good run, made a cut to his right and then went for a powerful shot. He hit the far post, missing the goal by an inch. 

Martinelli's weak right footed shot from close range was grabbed easily by Bayindir.

Casemiro won the ball back in their half and then sent a good long ball for Mbeumo. Mbeumo's shot was deflected for a corner by Gabriel. 

David Raya made a huge mistake in the goal, and as Cunha went for the goal, Raya pushed him to win the ball back.

However, the referee did not feel it was good enough for a penalty.

It was a crazy match indeed. Barcelona started well. Mallorca started in the worst possible way. 

Raphinha scored early. Ferran scored while Mallorca players thought the game had stopped. The referee did not whistle, and the game continued despite the head injury. The goal stayed. 

Morlanes received two yellow cards to get sent off, while Muriqui was shown a direct red card for a high boot on Joan Garcia. 

Mallorca did well to concede only one more goal despite being down to nine men. 

Lamine scored the late goal and bagged the player of the match for one goal and one assist. 

I hope you enjoyed the coverage. Thank you and good night. See you in the next LIVE blog. 

A convincing win for the defending champions. But, good game for Mallorca after going down to 9 men in the first half.
