FULL TIME: Real Madrid 1-2 Athletic Club
Athletic Club will take on Barcelona in Sunday's Spanish Supercopa final!
Is there one last Real Madrid opportunity left in this match? Time is running out for them now. They are piling players forward. Ramos is playing as a full time centre forward.
What a tackle! Williams look set to finish this game off for Athletic Club. He was through, but Casemiro got back to make a last gasp sliding tackle on the forward to prevent the goal.
There will be SIX minutes of stoppage time played at the end of the match.
Simon becomes the latest player to be shown a yellow card. Time wasting.

K. Benzema
Ramos wide! The Real Madrid captain is playing as an emergency centre forward. He was up from the back, got on the end of a delivery into the box, but heads wide of the target!
Garcia has also been booked by the referee, but it's not quite clear what for.
Yellow card
D. García
Kroos is booked for a late tackle on Garcia. He was stretching.

Time is running out for Real Madrid to find an equaliser to send this semi final to extra time, just as last night's semi final did, but it is an open game. There will be opportunities.
GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO... NO! Benzema lashes hom a finish, but there's no doubt about this one. He was well offside and that goal will be chalked off by the officials.
He was clean through! That could have been the goal to settle Athletic Club's nerves! Villalibre was through, but Courtois made the save to keep him out and keep Real Madrid in the game.
And here comes Villalibre for the Basque side as well.

Well, Real Madrid have given themselves a late lifeline in this match. They still have enough time to complete the turnaround. We are set for a grandstand finale in Malaga!
GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL! Real Madrid 1 (73 mins - Karim Benzema) Athletic Club 2. The goal stands after a very lengthy VAR check and Real Madrid have a way back into this match! Casemiro headed a cross back into the middle for Benzema. The Frenchman swept home and the replays show he was onside!
