  • 92'
    That's the end of the game, and you have to say the end of the tie. Full credit for Melilla restricting Madrid to juist four gaols, as they frustrated them for large parts of that game. However, the away side just had too much in the end and never looked like doing anything but dishing out a thrashing in this one.

    In contrast, real Madrid will expect an easy game here but will need to be careful to not let standards slip, especially after the run of form they have displayed recently that led to the dismissal of Julen Lopetegui.
