  • Live Commentary

    Time:90'
    • Sevilla
    • Real Madrid
    • 93 FULL-TIME: Two first-half goals are enough to bring Real Madrid thumping down to earth with a bump; superb performance from the home side, who blew them away to climb the table.
    • 90 CAN'T QUITE FINISH! Navas breaks, finds Capel in the middle, but the youngster takes too many touches as the Real defenders come flooding back to crowd him out. Sevilla should have scored more than just two this evening, that's for sure.
    • 84 WHACK! Guti joins the rest in the referee's book with a late, thumping shoulder barge in to the back of Christian Poulsen.
    • 82 ALVES! The spritly full-back leads yet another break from Sevilla down the right; he gets past a couple of challenges, decides he can't thread a pass through to Kanoute and tries to prod goalwards, but gets muscled out.
    • 78 Sevilla are all over Real at the moment; they are breaking in numbers and at pace - the only thing that is lacking is the final ball. Real are really struggling to get hold of the ball to get the chance to create anything.
    • 73 OVERPLAYING, AGAIN! Navas breaks down the right; he outpaces his man to get in to the penalty area...but instead of shooting, tries to pull the ball back to Kanoute - and Real are able to clear.
    • 68 FIRST-TIME VOLLEY! Capel, after a couple of unnecessary stepovers, flashes a cross in to the near post, where Fabiano hits a first-time volley wide. Casillas was left completely exposed once more.
    • 65 ANOTHER DIVE! THIS IS EMBARRASSING! Following Raul's earlier booking for "simulation", Diego Capel is shown the yellow card for throwing himself to the ground in search of a penalty under a "challenge" from Marcelo.
    • 62 CUT APART! Sevilla cut Real apart with a swift break...Keita gets down the right channel, cuts in to the area...but as he tries to pick out a man in the box, Metzelder clears.
    • 59 GIA MARIA! RAUL GOES DOWN IN THE AREA...AND GETS BOOKED FOR DIVING! Replays show it was an excellent decision from the referee, who spotted that Raul simply threw himself to the ground under the challenge of Ivica Dragutinovic.
    • 55 Ivica Dragutinovic is the latest name in the book, this time for a tackle-from-behind on Robinho.
    • 54 WHAT A MISS! Fabiano, played onside by a sleepy Cannavaro, shoots high over the crossbar when faced with just Casillas from 10 yards. A sorry finish - and a surprising one two, as he has been in fine goalscoring form recently.
    • 51 More trouble for Real! This time it's a red! Sergio Ramos is shown a second yellow card for a lunging challenge - with a hand in Navas' face. That makes things fairly hard for Real...
    • 48 Robinho is booked early in the second half for a rather rash sliding challenge; no signs that this game is going to cool down...
    • 46 The second half is underway...Can Real Madrid claw themselves back in to this match?
    • 45 HALF-TIME: Sevilla have been clinical in their finishing, but Real will consider themselves very unlucky to be going in two goals behind; they have had periods of great pressure themselves in the opening 45 minutes.
    • 43 POOR! Diego Capel slices well wide from the edge of the area when a free-kick was only half-cleared in to his path.
    • 42 Keita and Sergio Ramos are booked for an angry exchange. No complaints there; the linesman had to step in before it got a bit nasty.
    • 37 It's been quite a bruising match, thus far; Sevilla, who have already lost Federico Fazio through injury, are forced to get treatment for José Ángel Rincón and Seydou Keita within the space of a couple of minues.
    • 34 GET UP! Andres Palop comes through a crowd to collect a deep cross; he accidentally barges van Nistelrooy as he turns, attempting a quick throw-out - and collapses rather feebly to the ground.
    • 30 GOOD CHANCE! Kanoute sprints on to a neat pass down the left channel...he is pursued by Metzelder, who does just enough to force the striker to stab his effort the wrong side of the post.
    • 25 PENALTY! SURELY! NO! The home side are denied a chance to make it three when the referee turns down what looked like a certain penalty when Navas was brought down in the box.
    • 22 GOAL! INREDIBLE! Luis Fabiano makes it two in two minutes for the home side! Kanoute did the hard work, brilliantly controlling a through-ball with the outside of his foot before forcing Casillas in to a smart stop...but his partner in crime Fabiano is on hand to tap home the rebound!
    • 19 GOAL! SEVILLA LEAD! Keita latches on to a half-cleared ball on the edge of the penalty area before unleashing a swerving, sliced left-foot effort from the edge of the area...which flies in to the top corner! Great strike!
    • 17 ALMOST! Robinho whips a superb cross in to the middle after taunting Alves; the ball takes a deflection off a defender at the near post...and Van Nistelrooy just can't get his head on it as he came in unmarked at the back stick.
    • 15 Real are in fine form, as their 5-1 away win at Valencia showed in mid-week - and coach Bernd Schuster says they can get even better: "We can still improve despite the fact that there were moments against Valencia when I don't think we could play any better."
    • 12 Van Nistelrooy's snap-shot from the edge of the area flies well wide and very high, but it came from more great play down the right flank from Robinho...Good stuff from the league leaders.
    • 9 Real have made a decent start here; they earn a corner when Guti's free-kick has to be headed behind at the back post...Alves clears the corner at the near post to relieve some early pressure for Sevilla.
    • 5 Jimenez has recalled prolific Malian international Fredi Kanoute, who has scored five goals this season but was rested for the trip to Atletico.
    • 3 Manolo Jimenez has quickly made his presence felt as the new coach of Sevilla - can his side get him his first big, big win this evening?
    • 1 The first half is underway...
