Barcelona extended their winless run to three games after drawing 0-0 with Cádiz at Estadio Nuevo Mirandilla on Thursday.

The pressure continues to increase on head coach Ronald Koeman, who was also red card in injury time after protesting refereeing decisions.

In a lacklustre first half, neither side was able to create clear opportunities with Barcelona going closest through Sergiño Dest who fired over after breaking into the box.

However, Cádiz were fingertips away from breaking the deadlock just 40 seconds into the second half, after Marc André ter Stegen spectacularly kept out Álvaro Negredo.

Memphis Depay then had a golden opportunity to ease the pressure on his manager, but miscued from close range after Luuk de Jong found him with an inch-perfect cross.

To make matters worse, Frenkie de Jong was sent off moments later for two bookable offences, although upon reflection the second yellow card looked extremely harsh.

Cádiz could have stolen all three points late on but Ter Stegen saved well from Salvo, before in the dying seconds, Memphis fired inches wide after breaking at speed.
