Barcelona 1-0 Dynamo Kyiv: Player ratings as Barça win first Champions League match of season

Barcelona won their first Champions League match of the season at the third time of asking, beating Dynamo Kyiv 1-0 at Camp Nou.

Ronald Koeman's side had suffered successive 3-0 defeats to Bayern Munich and Benfica in Group E and were in desperate need of a result against the Ukrainian outfit to give them a fighting chance of reaching the knockout stages.

They strolled to three points on Wednesday night with a routine win against a lifeless Dynamo side.

Sergino Dest nearly gave Barcelona the lead after just 90 seconds when Jordi Alba picked him out from a deep cross, but the USA international couldn't keep his header down.

Luuk de Jong had a huge chance to put Barça in front when he met Memphis Depay's free-kick, but his free header was way off target.
