Comfortable win for the defending champions. They close the gap with Real Madrid. They are now just 2 points behind the table toppers. 

Hansi Flick's men remain unbeaten in the league this season. 

Fermin Lopez got injured during the final play. Ferran Torres with a brace, while Olmo scored and assisted for the first time for Barcelona. 

We will see you in the next match. Thank you for staying up. Good night.

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.

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. 

FC Barcelona 2-0 Getafe.

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.

Get the full FC Bayern Munich vs Chelsea recap here.

Luis Enrique can’t have wished for much more. A swashbuckling attacking display that included four goals and a well-deserved clean sheet.

After a league phase campaign fraught with jeopardy last time round, Paris start their quest for a second consecutive Champions League crown in the most consummate of ways.

As for Atalanta, they toiled and stuck to their task, but will now focus on picking up their first points against Club Brugge in two weeks time.

After something of a shaky start, Ajax managed to find their way back into the game. 

Ironically, they had the best chance of taking the lead – Yann Sommer saving expertly from Mika Godts – seconds before Marcus Thuram headed the visitors in front at the other end.

John Heitinga’s men will now have to commit more men forward in search of an equaliser, which could play into Inter’s hands.

Follow the Bayern Munich vs Chelsea match LIVE here.

Against Atletico Madrid, Andrew Robertson and Mohamed Salah have found the net for Liverpool within first 6 minutes of the match.

What a contest we have witnessed! Both teams gave everything, competing all the way. Slavia earned a two-goal advantage thanks to a pair of strikes from Youssoupha Mbodji on his full debut, but Bodø/Glimt displayed the character they so often showed during last season's run to the Europa League semi-finals thanks to substitutes Sondre Brunstad Fet and Daniel Bassi. A breathtaking evening, with both clubs showing why they play at this level.

A pair of penalties from Kylian Mbappé helped Real Madrid turn a deficit into victory in Xabi Alonso's first Champions League game at the helm. 

After withstanding early pressure from the hosts, Marseille struck first through Timothy Weah's emphatic finish, but Alonso's side were quickly level when Mbappé converted from the spot following a foul by Geoffrey Kondogbia on Rodrygo.

Although Madrid had Dani Carvajal sent off in the 72nd minute, Mbappé struck again with nine minutes left after Facundo Medina was penalised for handball.

Borussia Dortmund and Juventus shared the spoils after an eight-goal thriller in Turin that equalled the record for the highest-scoring Champions League draw.

Khéphren Thuram and Loïs Openda both went close for the hosts in the first half, before Karim Adeyemi’s 52nd-minute finish sparked the encounter into life.

Kenan Yıldız, Felix Nmecha and Dušan Vlahović all scored in a four-minute flurry before Yan Couto's powerful finish made it 3-2 to Dortmund.

The visitors looked to have sealed victory through Ramy Bensebaini's 85th-minute penalty, but Juventus rescued a draw in added time thanks to Dušan Vlahović's finish and a Lloyd Kelly header.

Qarabağ claim a historic win here in Lisbon – and few can argue with the result. Benfica were 2-0 up after 16 minutes, but after Leandro Andrade’s goal, the Azerbaijan champions grew in confidence and made the most of their momentum to level and ultimately win it in the closing stages. Welcome back, Champions League!

Substitutes Gabriel Martinelli and Leandro Trossard strike to give Arsenal a winning start in a tight contest in Bilbao, where Athletic Club performed admirably on their much-anticipated return to the competition. 

Arsenal have failed to score in Spain in the first half. 

Mikel Arteta's men looked good but not sharp enough. Meantime Athletic have done well to defend and attack on the chances they got. 

Important 45 minutes to come.

Anouar Ait El Hadj extends the lead for Union SG. The newcomers are on fire! 

Pepi fouled Burgess inside the box, and Union SG won the penalty. Promise David perfectly sent Matěj Ková the wrong way to hit the low corner of the goal.
