Last updated : 09 August 2003 By Sam
City went down to the only goal of the game when Argentina striker scored with a swett left-footed effort two-minutes before the break for ten-man Barcelona - Phillip Cocu having been dismissed after just 22 minutes for a professional foul on Craig Hignett.

Turkish international Muzzy Izzey came closest to equalising for the Foxes when he clipped a shot just wide of the right hand upright just before the hour mark.
