90'
We're into the 90, and there'll be FIVE more minutes of injury time for either of these sides to find a winner!
89'
As the clock ticks ever closer to the red, it's looking increasingly likely that this is going to finish goalless. You wouldn't have guessed from the football on show though - it's been mesmeric at times and both sides have gone close to scoring on so many occasions!
85'

Sorloth hasn't been able to make it six goals in six straight games, and he comes off for Carlos Fernandez to see out the game up front.
Los Blancos take their 10th corner of the game, which comes to nothing, but Kubo is caught out trying to shepherd the ball out of play and Kroos almost tees up Benzema to score!
80'
Successive loose balls almost spark Sociedad counter-attacks, but an interception from Rudiger and a classic Militao tackle respectively prevent the visitors from advancing over halfway.

45' +1
We're into one additional minute of added time at the end of this first half.
43'
Rodrygo stretches the left side of Sociedad's defence once again before finding Sociedad in support. He looks to beat Munoz and cross, but the ball takes a deflection off the left-back and goes behind for a Madrid corner.
Rudiger and Le Normand tussle again in the box ahead of Madrid's corner, and the German international goes down, claiming a penalty. The referee is unwavered though and calls play on, much to the relief of the Sociedad defender.
41'
Nacho gets yellow.
Madrid try to keep the chance alive as Kroos hacks a shot goalwards. It's deflected and Nacho, who cut inside to feed him the ball, slides in on Zubeldia and catches the centre-back late, with the challenge and his reaction deemed worthy of a yellow card by the referee.
A Sociedad free-kick is headed clear and Camavinga spreads it wide to Rodrygo down the right. He bursts into open space and heads towards the box before finding Vinicius, but he's crowded out and can't find Benzema outside him!

31'
Elustondo shows good skill and pace to beat Camavinga down the right, but it's cleared by Madrid. Mendez and Kubo look to play a one-two down the same flank, but Kubo's return pass for Mendez is too long and the ball goes behind for a goal kick.
29'
Oyarzabal looks to get beyond Kroos, but the two's boots get caught together as he passes the German. Both go down following that twist between laces and studs, and the free-kick goes Madrid's way.
27'
Martín Zubimendi gets yellow.
Mendes cuts inside from the right but a good tackle from Kroos knocks the ball free. Both Ceballos and Zubimendi chase it, but the latter slides in with a wild challenge that catches his Madrid counterpart, and warrants a yellow card for Zubimendi.

22'
Camavinga makes a surge forward and links up with Vinicius down the left. He looks to switch play to Valverde in space, but Oyarzabal intercepts with a good defensive header which he knocks back to his goalkeeper.
20'
Vinicius pops up on the right and beats Munoz all ends up on his way into the area. He looks to cut it back to the penalty spot, but there's plenty of Sociedad shirts in cover and Oyarzabal is able to pass his way out of trouble.
16'
Vinicius sets off again before teeing up Benzema in the box, but the forward is crowded out by a swarm of black shirts and can't get a shot away!
