Barcelona have been held to a goalless draw by Anderlecht in tonight's NextGen Series encounter in Belgium.

It is the second time in the group stage that the Spaniards have failed to beat their opponents, following a 1-1 draw on their home turf back in August.

The visitors were reduced to 10 men in the 75th minute when Robert Costa Ventura was shown a red card.

The draw has left Barca five points clear at the top of Group A having played two more games than second-placed Tottenham Hotspur. Meanwhile, Anderlecht remain bottom with two points.
