Barcelona were held to a 0-0 home draw by Galatasaray in the first leg of their Europa League last-16 tie on Thursday as Scottish side Rangers kept their momentum in the competition going with a 3-0 win over Red Star Belgrade.

Barca bombarded Galatasaray with 14 goal attempts against only three from the Turkish side, who were indebted to 23-year-old Spanish goalkeeper Inaki Pena for several fine saves.

Galatasaray also made good chances with winger Kerem Akturkoglu a constant threat to the Barca defence with his pace and range of skills.

Relive all the action from the Nou Camp below.

GOAL! Sevilla 1 - 0 West Ham (Munir, 60’)⚽️

60 mins: Great goal! Jesus Corona swings the free kick over to the far side of the box where Munir is wide open. He meets the ball on the half-volley and controls it brilliantly to keep his shot low and hard. Alphonse Areola doesn’t move and the ball flies past him into the back of the net.

Sevilla 0 - 0 West Ham

59 mins: Sevilla build the pressure on West Ham’s backline by keeping the ball in the opposition’s final third. Lucas Ocampos receives the ball and gets brought down by a lunging Kurt Zouma who picks up the first yellow card of the night. Sevilla win a free kick deep in the Hammers’ half.

Sevilla 0 - 0 West Ham

57 mins: Chance! Navas brings the ball down the right wing and carries as high as the box. He comes up against Aaron Cresswell and decides to slip a pass back to Oliver Torres. Torres floats a decent cross into the middle and picks out Youssef En-Nesyri who nods the ball straight to Alphonse Areola.

West Ham: Why are they not wearing a shirt sponsor in the Europa League against Sevilla?

West Ham are facing Sevilla tonight in the Europa League - but without their shirt sponsors Betway at the Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán Stadium in Spain.

Instead, the Premier League club lined up with an empty space on the front of their playing shirts where the Betway logo would normally have been.

That is because of gambling sponsorship laws in Spain, which prohibit football clubs from displaying betting companies and logos on their shirts.

Sevilla 0 - 0 West Ham

54 mins: Navas chips a decent ball over the head of Aaron Cresswell and picks out the run of Ocampos. Those two have been great with their link-up play tonight and this move is no exception. The ball drops to Ocampos who tries to send an effort at goal but scuffs it into the arms of Areola.

Sevilla 0 - 0 West Ham

51 mins: Michail Antonio stays down after coming out worse from a tackle in midfield. There are nervous looks on the faces of the West Ham coaching staff but the forward hobbles to his feet and says he’s okay to continue.

Sevilla 0 - 0 West Ham

48 mins: Save! Almost the perfect start for West Ham. Michail Antonio receives the ball on the front edge of the box and sets up Tomas Soucek for a driving effort that is on target but gets palmed by Yassine Bounou.

Second half: Sevilla 0 - 0 West Ham

Kick off: Sevilla get the match back underway. Neither manager will be disappointed with how that first 45 minutes went and as such there are no changes in personnel at the break. Yassine Bounou continues in goal for the home side.
