Borussia Dortmund 0 - 0 Barcelona : Messi makes debut as Barca draw in Dortmund
Borussia Dortmund hit the woodwork and had a penalty saved before drawing 0-0 with Barcelona in their Champions League Group F opener on Tuesday, with Lionel Messi making his first appearance of the season for the Spaniards.
Barca's in-form 16-year-old Ansu Fati became the club's youngest player to feature in a UEFA competition when he started, but he failed to make any real impact before being replaced by fit-again Messi just before the hour mark.
Even after the Argentine took the field, it was the Germans who were more dangerous, with captain Marco Reus' 57th-minute penalty saved by Marc Andre ter Stegen.
Reus was denied twice more by Ter Stegen and Julian Brandt rattled the crossbar with a thundering shot in the 77th.
