Hello and welcome to Estadio Vicente Calderon for LIVE coverage of the Madrid derby. It's Atletico v Real in la Liga. Kick off is 21:00 UK (22:00 CET).

Thanks for staying with us throughout the game and for making your player ratings. Your man of the match, incidentally, was Falcao with an 8.1 rating. Ronaldo was second on 7.9. Good night.

Atletico, meanwhile, slip two places to ninth due to results occurring elsewhere tonight.

Real's lead is back up to four points over Barcelona with just six games to go.

Full time. Atletico Madrid 1-4 Real Madrid.

Koke is booked for a foul on Ronaldo.

Real are playing keep ball here. They just want to run down the clock.

It's Callejon, the subsitute, who slots the ball low and between the legs of Courtois. Predictably it was Ronaldo's pass that set that one up. 13 goals for him this season, and most of them have come from the bench.

GOAL!!! Atletico Madrid 1-4 Real Madrid.

From the corner, Pepe conspires to miss from a yard away at the near post. Immaterial. This game is won and Atletico have lost focus.

Higuain spots a gap in the Atletico defence.... his low ball finds Ronaldo... IT MUST BE FOUR... No. Courtois blocks the shot. Corner.

REAL MADRID SUBSTITUTION: Jose Maria Callejon replaces di Maria.

Ronaldo converts the penalty low and to Courtois' right. That's his hat-trick and 40 league goals for the season - 52 in total.

GOAL!!! Atletico Madrid 1-3 Real Madrid.

Diego Godin brings down Higuain in the box. Totally unnecessary. The ball was going away from Higuain.

PENALTY TO REAL.

Falcao wins another header at the far post, and heads straight at Casillas. How many more times will the Real central defenders let him have a free ride?

GREAT DEFENDING FROM PEPE. He puts the goalbound effort from Adrian out for a corner.

ATLETICO SUBSTITUTION: Koke replaces Arda.

Juanfran muscles Arbeloa out of the way and puts in a lovely cross for Falcao. GREAT CHANCE.... but straight into the hands of the grateful Casillas. The striker got in between Pepe and Ramos like they weren't even there.

Juanfran and Coentrao collide and the Real full back is down. Physios make it over and he's back in action.
