Events

Match Events

  • 0' The match kicks off with home fans waiting with anticipation for Deportivo Alaves to score. At the same time, Real Madrid CF does not seem to pull back! Let’s get it on!
  • 5' Deportivo Alaves are deployed in a 4-2-3-1 today, looking to exploit space against Real Madrid CF's 4-3-1-2 shape.
  • 10' Samu Omorodion has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 2 goals this season.
  • 15' Deportivo Alaves are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined Real Madrid CF backline.
  • 20' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 25' Abdelkabir Abqar has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 24 cards already picked up this season.
  • 30' Real Madrid CF started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 30.
  • 35' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 40' Jude Bellingham has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 40.
  • 45' The referee shows Deportivo Alaves player a Yellow card on 45.
  • 50' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
  • 52' The referee calls foul for Nacho. He receives a Yellow card.
  • 53' A meaty challenge results in booking for Nacho on 53.
  • 55' Real Madrid CF make a change. Luka Modric trudges off to be replaced by Aurelien Tchouameni on 55 minutes.
  • 59' Javi Lopez is ready to make an impact after coming on for Ruben Duarte at the 59 minute mark.
  • 60' It is a substitution in Deportivo Alaves team. Jon Guridi is replaced by Ianis Hagi on 60 minute.
  • 65' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Ruben Duarte suffering a number of foals already.
  • 70' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 70 minutes.
  • 72' Time for substitution for Deportivo Alaves. Abde Rebbach is replaced by Alex Sola.
  • 77' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
  • 79' The supporters are chanting for Nahuel Tenaglia. He replaces Andoni Gorosabel on 79 minute.
  • 83' That is a Yellow card for Deportivo Alaves. Ander Guevara will be fuming at that decision.
  • 88' Deportivo Alaves have won 237 goals from 267 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
  • 90' Nahuel Tenaglia is having his name booked by the referee on 90.
  • 90' Real Madrid CF make a change. Rodrygo trudges off to be replaced by Dani Ceballos on 90 minutes.
  • Both sets of fans can go home satisfied — a 0-1 draw is a fair result on the day.
