00:00Oh, yeah!
00:14Here's Petri, he's played behind Olmo, here's Lewandowski, he's thinking not once but twice about the shot,
00:19there's a nifty backheel, it's lifted into the centre, Dani Olmo had the chance and he got too much underneath it.
00:26The header over is the first opportunity of note.
00:38So many players with history at both clubs, we've got Sergio Gomez on the bench for Barcelona,
00:43here comes a chance for Dani Olmo, turns it in, off the pass, it was slickly played again from that right-hand side,
00:50Lewin Yamal finds a direct pass to Dani Olmo, he makes it 1-0 just past the ten-minute mark.
00:57Barca take the lead in the derby.
01:11Well, here comes a chance for Barca to score a second,
01:14Hafenia taps it over the top of Joan Garcia, it's another direct ball, played beautifully through,
01:21and Hafenia, who haven't had too many touches in the first half so far, knocks it over the goalkeeper,
01:27just like that, Barca have doubled their advantage.
01:32Not too many touches but that was quite a nice one, super deft, and if you permit me to return to a theme.
01:40Barca back on the ball, space in the middle for Hafenia.
01:45The door shut by Espanyol, nearly given away, and it is given away, Valde to Olmo,
01:50Olmo lines up a shot and fires one in, 3-0 to Barca on the half hour,
01:56Dani Olmo with his second of the derby, driving it in when space was afforded to the Blaugrader in the middle.
02:09Lewandowski, right footed strike, Joan Garcia makes the save.
02:24This has been taken away by Corral, played through the middle, what can Poirot do from here?
02:28He's being forced wide by Kovacic, he goes for goal.
02:32Wow.
02:34Iñaki Peña makes the block.
02:36This has been taken away by Corral, played through the middle, what can Poirot do from here?
02:40He's being forced wide by Kovacic, he goes for goal.
02:44Wow.
02:45Iñaki Peña makes the block.
02:55Romero, over towards the back post, and that one is fired in by Javi Poirot.
03:00It's been coming, Duncan.
03:01Espanyol, this time around, do make it 3-1.
03:05Well, there's a check of VAR maybe, Poirot still celebrating.
03:10Do you know that or did you just guess?
03:12Well, I saw the referee, he's just listening in.
03:17You have to wonder, well, here, it seems he's on.
03:19They've finally beaten the Barca off side trap, which has been so effective in the last few games.
03:26The Barcelona derby comes to an end.
03:29Barcelona win 3-1 against Espanyol.
03:41Dani Olmo, the scorer of two of the goals, and he is named the man of the match.
03:47Javi, you've got the other one for Barca, Espanyol.
03:50You've got the other one for Barca, Espanyol.
03:53Pulling one back in the second half, playing for pride after the setbacks.
