Result: Barcelona 2-0 Viktoria Plzen

Barcelona have kept up their unbeaten start to their Champions League defence with a 2-0 win at home to Viktoria Plzen.

Andres Iniesta opened the scoring on 10 minutes when he fired home after exchanging passes with Lionel Messi.

Despite the early goal, the hosts were frustrated by their Czech opponents and they couldn't add to their tally before the break.

It was a similar tale in the second half as Plzen defended stubbornly, but David Villa sealed the win for the Catalan side in the 82nd minute when he finished off a quick counter attack.

Despite the win, Barca remain second in their group after leaders AC Milan beat BATE 2-0 at the San Siro.
