    Time:90'
    • Real Madrid
    • Recreativo de Huelva
    • 90' Gonzalo Higuain makes it 2-0 in the final minute!! A superb ball from Guti for the Argentinian, who had only Sorrentino to beat, and duly did so. There's the final whistle now!
    • 84' Recre see another chance go begging, as Javi Guerrrero sees a shot disappear into the upper tiers of the Bernabeu! Casillas is furious with his defenders!
    • 75' Recre are down but certainly not out. Victor Munoz's side is one that fights until the end.
    • 72' Van Nistelrooy puts Real ahead!!!! Again Raul lays it off for the Dutchman, and this time he makes no mistake! THat's his second of the season.
    • 71' Raul brings it down well on the edge of the area, lays it off for Van Nistelrooy, he fires on in, but fails to make the 'keeper work.
    • 67' Schuster has drawn huge whistles from the crowd as he has just taken off Arjen Robben, the team's main source of inspiration, along with Mahamadou Diarra. On in their place are Fernando Gago and Gonzalo Higuain.
    • 49' Sneijder has only Sorrentino to beat...but his shot finds the post and bounces out!!! He could have squared it Van Nistelrooy, but opted to shoot himself. In retrospect, he probably should have passed.
    • 46' We're underway in the second half at the Bernabeu.
    • 45' Half-time at the Bernabeu.
    • 43' Robben collects it on the right once again, charges into the area and is brought down by Caceres. The Dutchman appeals for a penalty, but the referee waves play on.
    • 38' Recre have managed to frustrate Real well so far. Van Nistelrooy has had the 'Merengues' only effort of note so far.
    • 30' Jesús Vázquez booked for a nasty challenge on Guti.
    • 27' Cácecer booked.
    • 26' Now Casillas is called into action first to parry a header, then to save from Beto.
    • 23' Two chances in quick succession go begging for Real. First Van Nistelrooy sees an effort well saved by Sorrentino, then Recre manage to hack clear after a goalmouth scramble.
    • 19' Beto puts in a nasty challenge and he too is in the book.
    • 14' Sneijder is booked for an untidy challenge on Aitor.
    • 13' Sneijder finds Raul in the area, but he sends his effort whistling past the post.
    • 8' Real Madrid go close! RObben takes a heavy touch but still races clear of his marker, he crosses to the back post for his compatriot Van Nistelrooy, but Sorrentino makes the save!!
    • 5' The in-form Javi Guerrero fires in his first shot of the afternoon, though blazes it well over the bar. He will be looking to show Real Madrid that they were wrong to let him go after he came through the ranks there.
    • 1' We're underway at the Bernabeu!
