Sisto is seeing plenty of the ball down the left side, taking Real Madrid players on. This time he beats Casemiro, but is brought down by the Brazilian. No booking for him, though.
14'
The strike from Ronaldo was fantastic, but the play from Isco in the build up before the goal was also great. The playmaker has become a key player for Real Madrid in recent weeks.
13'
Celta Vigo have actually started this match rather well, but they find themselves behind after that sensational Ronaldo strike. However, Real Madrid can't become complacent with their lead.

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL! Celta Vigo 0 Real Madrid 1 (10 mins - Cristiano Ronaldo). Real Madrid have an early lead at the Baladios! Isco dribbled to the edge of the box, with the ball falling to Ronaldo. He made no mistake in lashing home a finish, giving Sergio no chance.

Neither side have really taken a grip of the game yet. This time it's Celta Vigo who come forward on the attack, with Sisto taking the shot. Navas makes the rather simple save, though.
9'
Benzema looks energetic early on for Real Madrid. The Frenchman has more than once driven into the box, but his scoring record hasn't been great of late. He has just five goals in 23 games.

Of course, this match is all about the title race at the top of La Liga. Real Madrid can move ahead of Barcelona with a win this evening. They have held this game in hand for a long time.
6'
Cabral gets caught of position, allowing Benzema to get in behind the Celta Vigo defence, but the deflection from Mallo takes the cross up over Ronaldo in the middle.
5'
Celta Vigo showed at Old Trafford last week that they can cause real problems for big teams. They were within a missed Guidetti chance of knocking Man Utd out of the Europa League.
4'
Both Celta Vigo and Real Madrid have fielded their strongest lineups for this game. They are both going for it, and that should produce quite the spectacle. Hopefully an attacking spectacle.

This match has been a long time in coming. These two teams were supposed to face each other in February, only for the match to be postponed due to storm damage at the Balaidos.
