FULL TIME: Las Palmas 0-3 Real Madrid
Credit to Las Palmas, they have at least tried to keep going until the end. They have pushed forward and that has sometimes been their downfall, leaving space at the back.
THEO RUN! He should have found Bale in the middle. It was initially great play from Theo to burst into the final third and into the box, but his cross for Bale was too strong.
Another missed Benzema chance. The Frenchman has found the net this evening, but this performance continues the trend that has dogged his season. He should be doing better.
Achraf has played well since coming on as well. The young Moroccan has a reputation in some quarters for being a bit of a liability, but that reputation is rather unfair. He's able.
One final change for the home side as both teams just wait for the final whistle.

Bale has surelybeen good enough this evening to justify a starting place against Juventus in Turin next week. He provides Real Madrid with a different dimension in attack.
Even as the Las Palmas defence got back to smother Bale, he still managed to get the shot away, with Chichizola scrambling to collect the ball before it crossed his goalline.
BALE WAS THROUGH! That probably should have been the Welshman's hat trick. He was played through, but the Las Palmas defence got back in time to smother his effort.
Vallejo has played well this evening. The youngster hasn't had that many chances in the first team this season, but he has demonstrated why he is so highly rated at Real Madrid.
NOT FAR WIDE! Las Palmas allowed Bale far too much space and time to cut inside on to his left foot. How many times have we seen him finish that? This time, it flashes just wide.
Will Benzema start against Juventus? What about Bale? Can Bale and Isco play in the same team? Ronaldo will play, but does that leave space in the side for Asensio and Vazquez?
Focus will now turn towards this Champions League quarter final game against Juventus in Turin. Zidane has a number of decisions to make regarding his starting lineup.
NAVAS TIPS OVER! Calleri gets above his marker and directs a header towards goal. Replays show that it actually hit the bar on its way over. It looked like Navas had tipped it over.
Another positive will be the fact that Benzema has found the net, but he really could have had a hat trick by now. The Frenchman has had the opportunities in front of goal in this second half.
The only downside of this win for Real Madrid will be the injury suffered in the first half by Nacho. He has become a key first team figure this season. They'll hope it isn't serious.
