End of match

  • 96'
    FT: Real Madrid 2-2 Celta Vigo!!! All over at the Bernabeu!!! Kroos and then Ramos from the spot put RM 2-1 up. They looked in control at 2-1, but they didn't kill Celta off. Santi Mina came on and inside two minutes, he scored thanks to a superb pass by another sub, Dennis Suarez. Celta played very well, but RM will be very disappointed as they were in control in the second half. That's all from us, thanks for your company and see you again soon!
  • 96'
    RM throw everyone forward , Marcelo runs and passes to Benzema and then Marcelo's shot is blocked by Murillo!!! The ref ends the game! 2-2!

    Red card to a member of the Celta coaching staff for throwing a ball onto the pitch.
  • 94'
    RM attacking through Carvajal then the move ends with a loose ball which Ruben collects.
  • 94'
    Celta attack again Mina and Dennis. They are throwing too many people forward. This is dangerous.
  • 93'
    Two minutes left.
  • 92'
    This is very open, Aspas counters and can't find Mina. Then Vinicius' cross at the other end is cleared away.
  • 91'
    What a save by Ruben to deny Benzema!!! Then Ramos wants a pen, but there's nothing there.
  • 90'
    Five added minutes.
  • 88'
    Benzema chests down a cross and fires wide! RM were cruising at 2-1, but one goal is never enough.
  • 88'
    RM have little time to respond here.
Goaaaaaal!
de Celta en el 85'
  • 85'
    It's 2-2!!!! Santi Mina scores out of nowhere!! Denis Suarez plays a tremendous through ball for Mina who controls and then knocks it past Courtois. I certainly couldn't see it coming. There were four or five defenders there and the pass is pinpoint.

de Real Madrid en el 65'
  • 65'
    Ramos scores!!! He sends it to the keeper's right, the GK guesses right, but he can't reach it.
  • 64'
    Penalty to RM!!! Benzema passes to Hazard and he is brought down by Ruben. No need for the GK to do that as the ball was going out of play!

    Kroos and Marcelo combine in the Celta box and then Marcelo is dispossessed.

  • 47'
    Kevin is penalised for a foul on Casemiro. Kevin is down injured after making the challenge. His right knee jerks badly after the ball gets stuck between his and Casemiro's knees. Not sure if it's knee on knee of it's a twist actually.
  • 46'
    RM gets us going again! No changes.
  • 45'
    Real Madrid have had lots of possession and territory, but they have hardly had a chance to speak of. Many off target, but none on. Smolov scored for Celta after a lovely pass by Aspas and Aidoo nearly doubled Celta's lead just before half-time, but Courtois made a great save.
  • 45'
    HT: Real Madrid 0-1 Celta Vigo! Half-time at the Bernabeu and the RM players are surrounding the referee. Ramos, Varane, Carvajal and others can't understand why there's no added time. There probably should have been one, but the reaction seems disproportionate.
  • 44'
    Shots on target: 0-2.
  • 43'

  • 39'
    Marcelo boots over from outside the box.
  • 38'
    Corner for RM! Celta wanted a foul, but nothing was given. The contact on Murillo is minimal. He was looking to go down.
  • 37'
    Good play involving Marcelo and Benzema, Kross passes to Benzema, his cross is deflected by Aidoo and Ramos at the back stick can't direct the ball on target.
  • 36'
    RM attack again down Celta's right, but Marcelo's cross foinds no one in the box. Plenty of effort, no finishing.
  • 34'
    A long ball is sent for Aspas by Olaza and Varane shields it out of play for a goal kick.
  • 33'
    Bale!!!! He shoots from long range and the ball bounces inside the six yard box before going wide.

    Celta are looking very solid here in defence. RM are not threatening the goal. Lots of possession and territory, but no end product.

  • 15'
    RM attack again near the Celta penalty area and Murillo boots it away.
  • 14'
    Marcelo passes for Benzema inside the six yard box, but Ruben gets their first. Marcelo is down injured after being caught by Rafinha, but then up shortly afterwards.

    RM are doing all the attacking, but they have yet to have a clear chance.

    Casemiro heads Hazard's cross wide of the goal!

  • 8'
    Varane was beaten very easily there and we have a surprising scoreline here.

    Smolov scores for Celta Vigo!!! Smolov is played in 25 yards from goal by Aspas, he's not offside, one and one and finishes brilliantly past Courtois!
