Liverpool 0-0 Bayern Munich, 1 minute
It looks a 4-3-3 for Liverpool, with Fabinho left of Joel Matip at the back.

Typically energetic pressing from Liverpool in the opening moments, forcing Manuel Never to launch long towards nobody in particular.
Lyon 0-0 Barcelona, 3 minutes
A first sighting of Lionel Messi with the ball at his feet, Sergio Roberto dispossessing Houssem Aouar to free his teammate.
The Lyon midfielder has to scythe Messi down on the edge of the box, and is duly booked. A big chance.
Lyon 0-0 Barcelona, 4 minutes
Messi saunters up to take the free kick, and tries a deft clip-of-sorts, but that's very poor by his standards.
Flies over the crossbar. Goal kick.
Lyon 0-0 Barcelona, 5 minutes
Technique!
Houssem Aouar shows his quality at the other end, somehow carving out a crisp strike with the ball almost beneath him, chopping down on the ball to produce awkward shape and force Marc-Andre ter Stegen into a strong save to his left.
Liverpool 0-0 Bayern Munich, 6 minutes
Liverpool just edging the early proceedings at Anfield.
Bayern Munich are defending relatively deeply. Joshua Kimmich and David Alaba particularly withheld thus far.
