21.50

Andres Iniesta is the man of the match. He will covet the Lance Todd trophy which is the king of all MOTM awards. But he can't have it.

Full time

In 36 games together this year, the season of Barcelona's second treble, Messi, Suarez and Neymar have scored 87 goals.

What an enjoyable, absorbing match.

Barcelona have won their fifth European Cup in 23 years, their fourth Champions League in nine years. They have joined Liverpool and Bayern Munich in the quintuple stakes. They deserved it but Juve had them rocking and played very well, particularly in midfield. But the movement and passing, long and short, picked Juve off.

GOAL!! Juventus 1-3 Barcelona (Neymar) And with the last kick of the game Neymar arrows an arcing shot past a hopelessly outnumbered but classily courageous Buffon. The keeper had taken the free-kick and then had to race back as Barca beat him with quick interchanges from Messi to Pedro to Neymar on the left of the box and he lashed home the proverbial cherry on the cake.

90+4 min

Suarez took so long to depart that there will be more time. Alves then handballs to waste more time. Juve free-kick on halfway. Buffon takes and is caught upfield when its headed clear.

90+4 min

Barca are kiiling it in the way they usually do, holding the ball high and inviting the foul, staying down awhile when they buy the free-kick. Suarez leaves to be replaced for the last knockings by Pedro. It's another farewell performance, then.

90+2 min

Long ball up from Lichtsteiner diagonally to the inside-left channel where Pogba runs around it to sell a dummy that allows Tevez space to shoot from 22 yards which he does but curls a comfortable shot into Ter Stegen's solar plexus.

90+1 min

Mathieu enters. Rakitic exits.

90 min

With Rakitic back Barca just about defend the corner and then win the second phase with a fine block tackle from Alba. There will be five minutes of injury time.

88 min

Coman for Evra as Juve go 3-3-4. And immediately Marchisio shoots low from 30 yards and Ter Stegen has to push it round his left post.

86 min

Extraordinary stretching from Suarez straight out of the Ministry for Silly Walks but he is all right. But they've started to look shaky at the back again as Evra opens them up down the left and passes to Llorente who shields it and rolls it just beyond Pogba's optimum reach and he can only stab a shot at Ter Stegen.

84 min

Juve throw on Llorente for Morata who has played very well. Suarez, after a tussle with Bonucci, goes down clutching his knee which seemed to be twisted when he planted his foot awkwardly.

83 min

Barca are playing for time with the referee but this past few minutes they ahve had no need to, using Juve's lack of minutes to exploit any gaps.

81 min

What a miss from Pique from a corner sent to the D that is cushion-volleyed over the top by Rakitic for the centre-back to Van Basten it in. He doesn't.

John McEnerney writes

Cometh the hour cometh King Xavi! Fairytale script & all that. One of the all time greats!

79 min

Roberto Pereyra replaces Vidal seconds after Pogba wastes a header. Here's Suarez's goal.

77 min

Messi takes it and balloons his shot over. As he turns to walk back, up goes the number board and Xavi comes on to a raucous ovation for Andres Iniesta.

75 min

A breather at last for a beleaguered MBMer but then Ter Stegen almost gives Juve an equaliser when he dives headlong and punches a Pirlo corner on to the bar and over for another. Pirlo tests him out again but Pique is on to it and Barca break up the left and are only halted by a trip that Barca characteristically make the most of. Time is taken as is a free-kick, 22 yards out, five metres to the left of centre.

71 min

It's all go - first Suarez is booked for leaving a foot in on Bonucci then Neymar has a goal chalked off for a header that he glances on to his hand which knocks it past Buffon. The hitherto superfluous behind-goal official agrees with Juventus and the goal isn't allowed. Neymar almost loses it when he realises what's happened, wagging his finger like a demented Toni Basil.

GOAL!! Juventus 1-2 Barcelona (Suarez) Barely a minute after Juve have a penalty appeal turned down when Pogba is forced to the ground with an arm wrapped round his neck, Iniesta and Alba work to release Messi up the left from where he skitters into the box and rasps a low shot across Buffon who blocks to the right of the area. Rakitic or Suarez are straight on to it, the latter winning the race to hook it in by the post.

67 min

Here's the Morata goal.

65 min

This is as absorbing a game as you could wish for. And damn open now, too. Pirlo plays a sumptuous pass from centre to left for Evra's run. He centres and it's Pirlo who stops the counter with a sharp tackle forty yards out when Evra's ball is blocked.

63 min

That came moments after Iniesta almost played Messi in in the box and is followed by Pogba screwing a low shot straight into Ter Stegen's arms after Evra went bombing down the left and scared the no doubt fancy pants off Alves

61 min

What a chance! Tevez on the edge of the box after Vidal opened up Barcelona on the left. Morata teed up the pass to the edge of the box but Tevez got under it and scooped it over.

59 min

Juve win a free-kick down the right. Pirlo, whose influence is growing, chips it into the area, where Morata heads over from the penalty spot. Juve are jabbing away like crazy here.

GOAL!! Juventus 1-1 Barcelona (Morata) Tremendous move, made by Marchisio's backheel to diddle Alba on the right then sent in a cross just behind Tevez who turned just in the nick and stretch his leg to the extent of his hip-flexor limits to rifle a shot low at Ter Stegen from 12 yards. The keeper dropped to his left to save but couldn't smother it and served it straight to Morata to drive into an open goal.

53 min

Mascherano who was the weak link at the back in the first half has Jordi Alba helping him out this half. Morata beat the Argentine but back came Alba to whip the ball away.

51 min

Marvellous move from the front three with Messi peeling in from the right with the ball on his left foot. He shuttles a pass to Neymar 18 yards out, back to goal who walls it back to him as does Suarez. Two one-two's in succession. When he gets teh ball back 20 yards out on the left of centre, though, he fizzes his shot a yard over the bar.

49 min

Juve pour men into the box for the corner, lose the header and Barca break like the wind, five v three and tear up the left. Juve can't keep pace but Suarez's speed, given his hip problem, is the least dangerous which gives them a chance but they still need Buffon to dig them out of danger with a low save to his right from Suarez's scud.

47 min

Fine link-up play from Morata who made some space for Tevez with a crafty shove and then his partner wins the free-kick for a clip on his heels. It's 35 yards out and crossed in by Pirlo but pique meets it and twists his neck to head out for a corner.

46 min

Barca throw in on the right from the kick off and they shift it to the left, 40 yards out where Neymar tries to curl in a throughball for Suarez's run but its easily blocked by Bonucci.

20.45

After that word from our sponsors, I'm back, with heat that would singe the devil. Juve are still in this. They might think it's over ...

20.42

It could be worse for Juventus, of course. Their old-timer Gianluigi Buffonhas made a couple of fine saves - including a jaw-dropper from Dani Alves - so it probably won't surprise you that he made our top 20 goalkeepers in world football a little while ago. See who joins him here.

20.37

While the players eat whatever the modern equivalent of oranges is, here are some half-time talking points. It seems social media has decided that Alex Song - currently entertaining the viewing millions on ITV - isn't a very good pundit. Read all about it right here

20.37

Barca look pretty happy with themselves. And understandably...

Half-time

The half ends with Messi as advanced as we've seen him, sashaying through the box on the right. Evra and Bonucci are not mugs enough to fly in though and with diligent jockeying and disciplined positioning they force him out of space to concede a goalkick. The ref's whistle for that is succeeded with the triple peep that ushers them off the park.

43 min

I doubted Souness too about his scepticism over Buffon. But the great goalkeeper fluffs a clearance, read by Neymar, who gives Suarez the most difficult of chances. knocking it behind him and leaving him with the only option of bicycle kicking it in.

41 min

Perhaps he isn't labouring as much as I thought as he has a pair of shots, the first when he drops deep enough into the inside-right channel to perplex Bonucci who doesn't want to leave a gap behind him but Suarez screws itjust wide. Then he smacks a snap-shot purler against the bar via Buffon's fingertip. The corner comes to naught but Juve's counter breaks down rapidly so Pogba has to do the 'professional' thing on Messi.

38 min

Suarez is labouring not that Mascherano takes that into account with a 40-yard pass in the mixer over the heads of Pirlo and Bonucci but not Barzagli.

37 min

Juve have the vex over a possible foul on the edge of the box when Alba gets his foot across Pogba but he got the ball. But the pressure is building, largely through Juve's use of their extra man in midfield.

36 min

Here's a shot of Buffon's fine save.

31 min

Barca sweep it from right to left through Messi and Busquets to Neymar. He pauses then releases Alba on the overlap but his cross is blocked by Barzagli. Juve have tightened up considerably, giving Lichtsteiner the support he wasn't getting earlier. They're also cramping Dani Alves' ability to get out of his half.

30 min

And two conceded as per Damian's email below when Evra squeezes out Rakitic and then Bonucci bumps Suarez over.

Damian Durrant writes

Rob based on the fouls given so far it seems if a defender touches anyone and that person falls to the ground a foul will be given. Truly on our way to no touch no tackle football ? Barcelona being well defended by the refereeing.

28 min

The Barcelona Hymn rings out as they make progress up the right. There's a view that Messi is playing so deep because he recalls the 2008 semi when Evra kept him quiet. I think he might also recall the 2009 and 2011 finals.

26 min

Excellent tenacity from Morata on the right, cutting in and refusing to allow a ball that is skipping away from him go, stretching and prodding it 25 yards out to Marchisio who belts a rising shot over the bar.

Great move from #fcb, passing and vision, Jordi Alba to Neymar to Iniesta and Rakitic. Brilliant. 1-0.

24 min

Juventus have had a couple of good moves from Tevez and now Morata curls a left-foot shot from the right of the D wide. It's bitty but they're slowly prising a crack open. What they need is a crevasse. Suarez is rubbing his back like Albert Steptoe after he's challenged by Bonucci.

22 min

Now Vidal decides to slap the cheek of Alves after a tackle. This is not going to end well for him.

19 min

Remarkably, though, Juventus are still in it and have twice broken forward very quickly. Mascherano does look shaky. And when Pirlo goes to feet and gets Tevez running at him they have looked dangerous. Pirlo gives it to Pogba who crosses for Tevez and Mascherano has to scramble it out for a corner that Pique clears.

17 min

Rakitic wins a corner on the left which he sweeps to Jordi Alba, who biffs a shot into the box that ends up missing by only a couple of feet.

16 min

Here's a nice view of the goal

15 min

Vidal has done it again, going off his feet and felling Alba. He'll be off in a minute. Lichtsteiner can't cope with Neymar's runs.

12 min

Breathtaking so far and Vidal goes into the book for a slide into Busquets. From the free-kick Suarez gets through on the left and pummels a shot at Barzagli then Messi again opens up a can of beans with his left foot, spinning another 30-yard pass from right to left into Neymar's run. He tries to hit it on a flying volley but succeeds in only centring it where Buffon comes to the rescue with an acrobatic double save, first one-handed from Alves, then to recover, leap up and catch the rebound.

10 min

But Juve break quickly up the right through Marchisio and then Morata with Tevez all over Mascherano, space opens up for Vidal to blast a shot over. Back come Barca at breakneck pace with Neymar approaching the D from where he smashes a shot over the bar. His movement has been superb so far.

8 min

Now he plays one from halfway, spinning it withhis left foot straight into Neymar's run. He cushions it on his instep and then hits it across the box, claiming a handball as he does so and it hits Barzagli.

6 min

That didn't take long. Messi's position on the right, deeper than we thought, and the slickness of the passing is causing problems.

GOAL!! Juventus 0-1 Barcelona (Rakitic) A terrific team goal, constructed by Messi's long pass from the right to the left of the box where Alba controlled it, scooped it to Iniesta who squared it to the unmarked Rakitic who sweetly buried his shot from 10 yards.

3 min

Barca now have their first spell of possession, Iniesta moving it out left to Neymar who runs infield, stops and via Alves knocks it out to the left again.

2 min

Good start from Juve, piling on the press, rattling Mascherano twice in 20 seconds and winning a corner that is hit too long. Their tactics didn't take long to reveal themselves. You press us? Not if we press you first.

1 min

Juve kick off and play it back to the centre-backs who interchange passes and Bonucci knocks it long. Pique wins the header, steering it to the right where Evra fouls Alves.
