A consolation tap-in goal was a deserved reward for a spirited performance from Kyiv. Dynamo Kyiv fielded a significantly depleted side, with only 13 first-team players travelling to Spain along with a further six youth players. A valiant performance from 18-year-old Kyiv goalkeeper Ruslan Neshcheret on his first-team debut ensured the goal deficit was held to just one. In fact, Messi has registered just one goal in six La Liga matches, a penalty against Villarreal. A considerable drought for someone who has scored 445 goals in his 16-year Barcelona career.
