Academy graduate Skipp struck twice in 12 minutes with his first a well-taken rebound after Giovani Lo Celso struck the post.

His second was even better as he met Ivan Perisic’s cross with a late dart into the box to head his side in front.

Barcelona left it late but they managed an unlikely comeback inspired in part by 16-year-old substitute Lamine Yamal.

The wonderkid burst down the right flank before playing a low cross for Ferran Torres to tap in.
