Barcelona's Ansu Fati scored the winning goal in a 1-0 Champions League victory over Dynamo Kiev on November 2, 2021, dedicating the goal to absent teammate Sergio Aguero.

The goal, Fati's third of the season, came with 20 minutes left in the match, securing Barcelona's maiden away success of the season in all competitions.

Barcelona's victory sent the team up to second in Group E of the Champions League, above Benfica, who qualified for the last 16 after a 5-2 loss at Bayern Munich.

Barcelona's temporary coach Sergi Barjuan made three changes from the weekend's draw with Alaves, with Fati starting instead of Aguero, who is set to miss at least three months of action due to a heart problem.

Home boss Mircea Lucescu dropped forward Benjamin Verbic for Denys Garmash as midfielder Serhiy Sydorchuk captained the side after scoring twice in Saturday's league win over FK Maiupol.

Barcelona will host Benfica on November 23 in their next game in the tournament, while winless Dynamo head to unbeaten Bayern earlier in the day.
