Barcelona deservedly went up 2-0 in the match after 43 minutes (2-1 on aggregate) on goals from Sergio Busquets and Andres Iniesta. Ramires restored Chelsea’s advantage in the home and away series with a decisive away goal in the 45th.

Barcelona dominated possession in the second half but failed to go ahead on a missed Lionel Messi penalty and several agonizingly close shots on goal.
