38 min: Lovely work on the left wing from Vinicius JR. who skips away from a tackle and sends a low cross in, right-footed. Again the danger is repelled but the ball comes back and again Benzema has a header saved. That’s the fourth time Simón has been called into action in the Athletic goal. 8.37pm GMT
35 min: We’ve got 10 minutes of this half to play. It’s an opening period that Madrid have increasingly dominated. If the visitors can hold out, it would be a miracle, at this rate. But Williams looks dangerous too and they remain a threat on the counterattack.
