Full Time FULL TIME: Barcelona 4-1 Arsenal: It's 6-3 on aggregate and the Gunners go out. Barcelona will face Inter Milan in the Semi-Finals but Arsenal's last chance of silverware is the Premier League. No game this weekend, so time to recover before the trip to Spurs next week.
87
AND THAT IS THAT: Messi - who else? - gets past Eboue and has a shot. Almunia saves but Messi converts the rebound. He's got four now and Arsenal are surely out.
87
GOAL! - Lionel Messi 4 : 1 GOAL: BARCELONA 4-1 ARSENAL
85
BARCA ON TOP: Good possession from the home side and. 'Ole!' chant the Barca fans. They know they are within touching distance of a Semi-Final spot.
84
WALCOTT HITS THE POST... but once again the flag is up. Bendtner played him through but Barca had pushed up and he was clearly off
83
PENALTY SHOUT: Turned down! Messi wriggles clear, tries to cut inside Vermaelen, the ball bounces up, big shout, ref waves play on
80
SLOPPY PLAY BY VERMAELEN: He forces Almunia to race out and kick. Barca regain possession and work it to Pedro... who twists inside and fires wide.
77
HALF-CHANCES... but if we had taken just one we could have a grandstand finish here. As it is, two goals looks a very tall order now
76
CLICHY DOES BRILLIANTLY... and then terribly. He nicks the ball off Alves and charges forward. Eduardo and Bendtner scream for a pass but Clichy takes on the shot from 20 yards. He's not known for his shooting and that one flies over.
74
Substitution SUB: Eduardo replaces Rosicky. Arsenal have to go for it now.
73
BENDTNER HITS THE POST! Clichy's cross was perfect, Bendtner's header rattled the post, but the flag was up anyway.
72
PEDRO ALMOST MAKES IT FOUR: Quick-thinking from Messi, he finds Pedro with an instant free-kick, Pedro lifts the ball over Almunia but wide of the post
71
TIME IS RUNNING OUT: Arsenal have had those half-chances and if they had taken one... well, we'll never know. They are no strangers to late goals - but two?
69
ROSICKY WASTES A GREAT CHANCE! Walcott found Diaby on the right, his low cross evaded everyone except Rosicky, in loads of space on the left. He could have taken a touch but opted to hit it first time and scooped it high and wide.
67
Yellow Card YELLOW CARD: Despite his protestations, Eboue goes in the book. Wenger is furious
66
XAVI GETTING ON THE BALL: Barca have rediscovered their composure with their skipper at the hub of things... and now Eboue is penalised for a trailing arm as he broke clear.
64
Substitution SUB: On comes Eboue, off goes Silvestre. Sagna switches to centre half.
64
PROMISING SIGNS: Barca are getting a bit nervy here. They have taken off a striker to shore up the midfield but Arsenal are having some joy at last
62
BENDTNER CROWDED OUT AGAIN: Another good move ends with the big Dane. He cuts inside from the right but can't shake off Marquez.
60
GREAT CHANCE BENDTNER! But his touch lets him down! Slick Arsenal passing ends with Diaby finding Bendtner. He lets the ball get away from him and a vital challenge comes in for Barca
58
DECENT ARSENAL POSSESSION: They knock it around for a good couple of minutes, accompanied by piercing whistles from the home fans. But that incisive pass into the final third is elusive
56
THE ARSENAL FANS ARE MAKING THEMSELVES HEARD: They are right at the top of the opposite stand but are out in force again. If we could just get one...
55
Substitution ANOTHER BARCA SUB: Off comes Bojan, on comes Yaya Toure. Pep Guardiola wants to shore this tie up.
55
PEDRO DRAGS A SHOT WIDE: Barca go straight down the other end and carve out a chance. This one goes wide though.
54
CHANCE FOR ARSENAL: Diaby gets into the box but his pass is behind Nasri and Barca can clear. Not good enough Arsenal. They need to capitalise on those rare openings.
53
Substitution SUB: Abidal has picked up an injury so on comes Maxwell. Walcott will be pleased about that.
52
THREE SUBS WARMING UP: Eduardo, Eboue and Fran Merida. Maybe we'll see Fran against his former club?
50
WALCOTT UP AGAINST MILITO: And the Barca man gets the better of Theo. Good pressure there from Arsenal. They need more of that.
49
BARCA BREAK AWAY... there's space on the right, acres of it... Pedro drives a cross into the box and Messi just fails to make contact. Almunia gathers.
48
WELL DONE CLICHY: He almost got caught out there on the left but got a fine challenge in and came away with the ball. Anything else and that would have been a card.
47
CHANCE FOR A BREAK... but Bendtner can't control and handballs instead. Pity - that would have been two against two.
46
WE'RE BACK UNDERWAY: Silvestre knocks it long to Rosicky, he tries to turn Alves but loses possession.
45
THE PLAYERS ARE BACK OUT: Time for a heroic triumph, a brave defeat or an absolute beating. We shall see. Come on you Gunners.
45
ARSENAL SUBS LIMBERING UP: Maybe we can bring two on and take no one off? That might stop Messi. Looking down the list you can see Eboue and Eduardo getting some action as we chase goals but, I say it again, how on earth do we plug those holes at the back?
45
WHAT CAN ARSENAL DO? They need two goals AND a second-half clean sheet. Both seem unlikely, especially the latter. What do you reckon. Let Dan and Martin know at www.arsenal.com/studio
45
MEH-SI, MEH-SI, MEH-SI: That's the chant from the home fans as the teams leave the field. Arsenal took a shock lead here in the Nou Camp but that man Messi has surely taken the tie out of their reach.
Half Time HALF-TIME: Barcelona 3 Arsenal 1
45
NASRI ON THE COUNTER-ATTACK: Samir surges past two challenges but his pass to Walcott is overhit.
42
MESSI IS JUST UNSTOPPABLE: This time Arsenal are caught out with a through-ball, Messi races onto it and lifts the ball over Almunia with impudent skill. Wonderful stuff from Messi and Arsenal have been taken apart in 20 minutes.
42
GOAL! - Lionel Messi 3 : 1 GOAL! BARCELONA 3 ARSENAL 1
40
SUCH A PITY FOR ARSENAL: But having squandered all those chances in the first leg, Barca are ruthless tonight.
37
MESSI AGAIN: Abidal's overlap does the damage. He gets in behind on the left, cuts the ball back, Pedro finds Messi with a cute pass and the little guy does the rest.
37
GOAL! - Lionel Messi 2 : 1 GOAL! BARCELONA 2 ARSENAL 1
36
GREAT CHALLENGE VERMAELEN! Excellent cross from Alves and the Verminator comes across to challenge Messi in the nick of time and clear the danger
34
BENDTNER RACES THROUGH... but the flag goes up for offside. Very close, very close.
32
OH MY WORD: You don't want to see that too often - Messi one on one with Silvestre. He shimmies this way and that and fires into the side-netting.
31
Yellow Card YELLOW CARD: Denilson goes in the book but that was never a foul on Messi... but Almunia gets down to save the free-kick from Alves
29
VERMAELEN PENALISED: He seemed to win that header legitimately but the ref blows for a free-kick. Arsenal get it back though and now Walcott is brought down. His pace is causing Barca problems.
25
THIS GAME HAS COME ALIVE: And, wouldn't you know it, I'm having technical difficulties. The Nou Camp wireless is not doing me any favours. But credit to Arsenal, they are making a real fist of it.
21
MESSI EQUALISES FOR BARCA. He tried to thread a pass through on the edge of the box, the ball took a touch off Silvestre and fell to Messi's feet. He lashed it past Almunia and we are back level on aggregate. That was one almighty roar from the home fans. Arsenal ahead for just a couple of minutes.
21
GOAL! - Lionel Messi 1 : 1 GOAL! BARCELONA 1 ARSENAL 1
18
IT'S BARCA 0 ARSENAL 1 AND NICKLAS BENDTNER HAS FIRED US AHEAD! Arsenal broke at pace, Diaby picked out Walcott's run, he squared it to Bendtner and the chance seemed to have gone as Alves made the challenge, but Bendtner was first to the loose ball and prodded it into the net. Amazing scenes here at the Nou Camp!
18
GOAL! - Nicklas Bendtner 0 : 1 GOAL!!! ARSENAL LEAD IN THE NOU CAMP!!!
16
NASRI ON HIS FEET: But he is limping rather badly. Colin Lewin continues the treatment off the pitch and Arsenal are down to 10 men for the moment. Eboue is warming up just in case... but hang on, Nasri is back on. We can relax (in one respect at least)
15
NASRI TRIES TO GET AWAY: He makes a surge on the right but Milito crunches into him. And Nasri is hurt. He needs treatment. Oh dear.
13
TACTICS: Barca's movement is so fluid it's tough to get close to them but Arsenal are not paying as much respect as they did in the first leg. But the visitors are not posing a threat at the other end.
12
WONDERFUL EFFORT FROM MESSI: Clichy half-clears a high ball under pressure, Messi gathers, comes inside and curls a majestic effort just over the angle
10
PEDRO FIRES WIDE: He collects in space on the edge of the box, turns and shoots across goal. No bother for Almunia.
8
DIABY ESCAPES A YELLOW CARD: Abou goes in late on Xavi and the ref gives him a final warning - to the derision of the home fans
5
GREAT SAVE ALMUNIA! Messi has a crack from the angle and Manuel flies across his goal to tip the ball away. That was really travelling.
4
XAVI FLICKS ONE WIDE: Abidal gets down the left and crosses, it clears the first defender and Xavi flicks wide with his back to goal.
3
GOOD INTERCEPTION DENILSON: He's patrolling the defensive midfield area tonight and needs to be bang on with his positioning and tackling. That was a good start
1
EARLY TOUCH FOR ALMUNIA: He can expect quite a few tonight but that was a simple claim from an overhit pass
Kick Off WE'RE OFF AND RUNNING IN THE NOU CAMP: Messi and co kick off and it's time for Arsenal to prove their doubters wrong
Arsenal's players are encouraging and cajoling each other in the centre circle and Theo Walcott gets some final instructions. Meanwhile the Barca players' names are cheered to the rafters by this capacity Nou Camp crowd.
The famous Barca anthem roars out at the Nou Camp and here come the teams. They make one hell of a noise here.
Our MatchDay Show is well underway and Dan and Martin will be picking up the commentary very soon. I think I can say on behalf of the entire Arsenal TV Online team - COME ON ARSENAL!
Just 15 minutes until kick-off and, one by one, every seat in this incredible stadium is being filled. The Arsenal fans I spoke to today were full of optimism - it might have been the beer talking - but in reality this is a task of epic proportions. Can they really beat the European champions on their own manor without Fabregas, Arshavin, Song, Van Persie and Gallas? Have your say at www.arsenal.com/studio
And here comes the rest of the Arsenal squad. White shirts covered by blue tracksuit tops, dark grey shorts, white socks and, hopefully, nerves of steel. They are greeted with piercing whistles from the home fans. Barca enter the field to a roar and a blast of The Killers. One of their less palatable hits, for that matter.
Manuel Almunia and Lukasz Fabianski are limbering up on the pitch down below me. Manuel might need a pair of those giant comedy foam hands to keep Barca out tonight.
The glaring omission is Sol Campbell - two high-octane games in three days is obviously a bit too much so in steps Mikael Silvestre. No pressure Mikael...
The Arsenal team has just been announced: Almunia, Sagna, Silvestre, Vermaelen, Clichy, Denilson, Diaby, Nasri, Rosicky, Walcott, Bendtner. Subs: Fabianski, Eduardo, Eboue, Traore, Campbell, Merida, Eastmond
I'm Chris Harris and I'll be supplementing their wise words with text commentary delivered straight from the Nou Camp itself. I'm already in position in the Barcelona press box and the stadium is slowly filling up as kick-off inches closer. The words 'Mes Que Un Club' - More Than A Club - scream out from the opposite stand and the Arsenal fans are stationed up in the gods to my right.
Our MatchDay Show kicks off at 7.15pm (UK time) with highlights from the win over Wolves and the key moments from Arsene Wenger and Theo Walcott's pre-match press conferences. Dan Roebuck and former Gunner Martin Hayes are your commentary team and they'll be fielding your e-mails during the game - get them in now at www.arsenal.com/studio
Hello from the Nou Camp. The odds say Arsenal are heading out of the Champions League. But the travelling fans here in Barcelona are talking about the ultimate 'smash and grab'. Who's right and who's wrong? Find out right here on Arsenal TV Online.
