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.

Half-time: Sevilla 0 - 0 West Ham

45+1 mins: Nothing to separate the teams after 45 minutes in Spain. It’s been a close and interesting affair with both teams creating chances.

West Ham should be in front though. Nikola Vlasic has a header saved and Michail Antonio should had turned the follow-up into the back of the net.

Sevilla 0 - 0 West Ham

45 mins: Sevilla appeal for a handball after Jesus Navas’ cross strikes Pablo Fornals on the arm. Nothing comes of it though and West Ham sweep up the pitch to win a corner.

Fornals takes it but curls the ball out of play before bringing it back into the box. Goal kick.

Sevilla 0 - 0 West Ham

42 mins: The match stopped for a minute or so as Yassine Bounou got some treatment. It looked like a problem with his ankle but he’s fine to play on. Will probably get another check up at half-time too.

Sevilla 0 - 0 West Ham

39 mins: Nemanja Gudelj knocks the ball back to his goalkeeper and Yassine Bounou belts it up the pitch. Tomas Soucek keeps his eye on the dropping ball and tries to win it in the air but collides with Jesus Corona and bungles the forward to ground. Free kick Sevilla.

Sevilla 0 - 0 West Ham

36 mins: Jesus Navas gets forward on the right side and combines well with Lucas Ocampos to create enough space for a cross. The ball comes over to the far side of the box where Ben Johnson and Youssef En-Nesyri come together. There’s a slight shove from Johnson and the Sevilla forward falls to ground looking for a penalty that he doesn’t get.

Sevilla 0 - 0 West Ham

33 mins: West Ham work the ball quickly down the right wing and give it to Vlasic. He brings the ball inside and rolls it onto his left foot before whipping a low, pacey effort narrowly wide of the near post!

Everytime Sevilla look like they’re getting a dominant foothold in the game, West Ham sweep forward and almost score. It’s very impressive from the visitors.

Sevilla 0 - 0 West Ham

30 mins: Half an hour played and David Moyes will be delighted with his team’s performance so far. They’ve more than held their own against the five-time Europa League champions.

Munir darts in from the right and lifts the ball into the penalty area. En-Nesyri wins it in the air and nods the ball towards the back post but Areola leaps across and smothers it.

Sevilla 0 - 0 West Ham

27 mins: Acuna swings another cross in from the left side and the ball drops to Ocampos. He passes it over to Joan Jordan but his effort towards goal gets charged down.

Sevilla come at the Hammers again with a pass over to Corona on the left wing. The ball comes over Ben Johnson but he recovers well and blocks the attempted cross into the box.

Michael Jones10 March 2022 18:12

Sevilla 0 - 0 West Ham

24 mins: West Ham are well drilled. They’ve got a solid shape to their play and are moving over the pitch as a unit. It’s not easy for Sevilla to play through them and the home side resort to a long cross field ball that heads straight out for a goal kick.
