Ferran Torres snatched an equaliser for Barcelona in an entertaining 1-1 draw against Eintracht Frankfurt on Thursday evening.

Ansgar Knauff's sensational touch and finish from 20 yards fired the Bundesliga side ahead three minutes after halftime, to the delight of a raucous crowd at the Deutsche Bank Park.

Substitutes Frenkie de Jong and Ousmane Dembele combined for Torres to equalise for Barcelona in fine fashion, midway through the second half.

Eintracht defender Lucas Tuta was dismissed for the hosts in the closing stages for a second bookable offence and will miss next week's trip to Catalonia.

An intriguing second leg awaits next week at the Camp Nou with the tie perfectly poised
