Events

Match Events

  • 0' What a night it is going to be! Real Madrid CF welcome RC Celta de Vigo for this crunch clash at Estadio Santiago Bernabeu.
  • 5' 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.
  • 10' RC Celta de Vigo have won 375 goals from 320 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
  • 15' Fernando Medrano, a Spain , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
  • 19' The referee calls foul for Kevin Vazquez. He receives a Yellow card.
  • 24' Both keepers have barely been tested. Real Madrid CF and RC Celta de Vigo are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
  • 29' RC Celta de Vigo started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 29.
  • 34' RC Celta de Vigo fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
  • 39' 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 Goncalo Paciencia suffering a number of foals already.
  • 42' The Spain Marco Asensio breaks the deadlock on 42 minutes. 1-0!
  • 45' The referee shows Real Madrid CF player a Yellow card on 45.

  • 48' Eder Militao adds to his 0 season tally! Real Madrid CF lead 2-0 — and this changes everything.
  • 53' Supporters expect more eagerness from Dani Ceballos, as he is very good at scoring at Estadio Santiago Bernabeu with 1 goals in the last 1 games.
  • 58' Javier Galan has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
  • 63' Haris Seferovic makes way for Goncalo Paciencia at the 63 minute mark. A tactical switch from RC Celta de Vigo.
  • 68' It looks like no one’s ball. RC Celta de Vigo is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 70' Javier Galan picks up a Yellow card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
  • 73' The supporters are chanting for Williot Swedberg. He replaces Javier Galan on 73 minute.
  • 76' Real Madrid CF ring the changes. Marco Asensio has done his job and it is now time for Lucas Vazquez to step up.
  • 78' It is a substitution in RC Celta de Vigo team. Kevin Vazquez is replaced by Fernando Medrano on 78 minute.
  • 81' The supporters are chanting for Luka Modric. He replaces Dani Ceballos on 81 minute.
  • 86' Ivan Villar has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 14 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • The referee blows the final whistle. Sensational lose for RC Celta de Vigo.
