    80’ Valdes denies Van Nistelrooy! The Dutchman attacks Robinho's low cross from the left but Valdes bravely dives at his feet to save! Robinho then bamboozles Zambrotta with a flurry of stepovers before putting in a low cross from the left that is cleared.

    59’ Sylvinho goes down after taking a blow to the mouth and looks to be in some discomfort.

  • Real Madrid-Barcelona

  • Real Madrid-Barcelona

    54’ Diarra fires in a shot from distance that is well held by Valdes. Abidal nicks the ball away from Raul inside the Barca box just as he's about to play it. Raul kicks the back of Abidal's foot and goes down, but the referee rightly allows play to continue.

    39’ Marquez is cautioned for a crunching challenge on Sneijder.

  • Real Madrid-Barcelona

    24’ Surprise early substitution for Barca, with Giovani dos Santos coming on for Gudjohnsen. Looks like Frank Rijkaard wants to make a game of it...

  • Real Madrid-Barcelona

    21’ GOAL! 2-0 Real! Guti's lofted free-kick is headed home at the near post by the unmarked Robben! It's all too easy for the Dutchman, who follows up his header in the title-clinching 2-1 win at Osasuna with another rare headed goal.

  • Real Madrid-Barcelona

    19’ Ramos wins a free-kick on the Real right for a foul by Yaya Toure, who is booked for protesting. In fairness to the Ivorian, he did his best to get out of the way.

    18’ Another shaky moment for Valdes! Sneijder's corner is cleared, Gago shoots from distance and Valdes allows the ball to spring from his grasp before snatching it away from the onrushing Raul!

    13’ GOAL! 1-0 Real! Guti toes the ball into the path of Raul on the edge of the Barca box and the Real skipper curls a peerless left-footer around Valdes and in off the left-hand post!

  • Real Madrid-Barcelona

    7’ Valdes almost gifts Real a goal! He dwells on the ball for just too long and with Raul and Wesley Sneijder closing in he just about manages to scramble it away!

  • Real Madrid-Barcelona

    1’ Off we go! Real, in all white, will attack from left to right in the first half. Barca are in their traditional burgundy and blue striped shirts, blue shorts and burgundy and blue hooped socks.
