    FT: RM 0-0 Betis!! All over here! Betis draw, but I don't know how. Real Madrid were the better team all the way through and in the last 15 minutes, it was an absolute siege. Mendy inexplicably failed to score a one on one, Vinicius had two glorious chances and Carvajal had a chance from outside the box which caused pinball in the Betis box. The away side had to scramble clear on many other occasions, but RM will feel they should've have had a pen nine minutes from the end.
  • 97'
    Mendy sends a ball into the box, it deflects off Ismael's back and goes through to Joel and the final whistle goes!
  • 96'
    Betis sub: Fekir is replaced by Ismael for Betis.
  • 96'
    Fekir, why don't you keep the ball? Betis have the ball and can take it to the corner, but Fekir looks for a teammate in the middle and it goes for a throw in.
  • 94'
    RM siege continues and Betis somehow clear after Modric darts into the box.
  • 94'

    Panic in the Betis box and Vinicius shoots at Joel!
  • 89'
    Canales' ball is half cleared and then Moreno continues the move, stops the ball from going out and then Emerson fires wide!
  • 86'
    If RM don't win this, we'll hear a lot more about that penalty. We've seen penalties given for a lot less this season.
  • 85'
    Carvajal's cross was creeping in and Joel tips it over.
  • 83'
    The VAR is checking and the ball hits Feddal on his outstretched arm. It's not deliberate, but with the new rules, that's a penalty for me as he makes himself bigger. Betis lucky, I feel.
  • 82'
    Pinball in the Betis area and then Feddal shoots from 30 yards and it's saved by Courtois!
  • 81'
    Real Madrid want a penalty for handball!!! Benzema's cross may hit a sliding Betis defender on the arm, but nothing is given.

    HT: RM 0-0 Betis!! Half-time at the Bernabeu! Real Madrid have been better here, but Betis have held their own in defence and even had a couple of dangerous chances themselves.
