Do come back for our live coverage of other Real Madrd games. Tomorrow there's an interesting Premier League clash between Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur, do join us for it.
That is all from our live coverage of Real Madrid vs Deportivo la Coruna. It was an interesting game and fun to have you with us.
Real Madrid are successful in regaining their 6-point lead over FC Barcelona at the top of La Liga table. And that too, without Ronaldo, Modric and Benzema.
Madrid looked comfortable holding on to their 1-0 lead before Joselu turned things around with his quickfire brace. Madrid looked destined to see their 34-match unbeaten streak come to an end but as luck and Sergio Ramos would have it, they have snatched a victory out of nowhere.
The result is harsh on Deportivo, who deserved a point at least. They scored twice, hit the post twice yet walk away with nothing. Football is cruel at times and Deportivo are experiencing that right now.
The Real Madrid captain stepped up once again to guide his team to victory. It was Barcelona last week, it is Deportivo this time. The venue and opposition may change but Ramos remains constant. A real captain's performance from the Spaniard. What a player!!!!
Real Madrid continue their unbeaten run and matches Barcelona's record. They looked done and dusted 10 minutes ago but Ramos doesn't believe in giving up.
FULL-TIME: Real Madrid 3-2 Deportivo la Coruna
WHAT A PLAYER!! Ramos loves injury-time winners. Doesn't he?
It was Ramos who bailed them out against Barcelona last week and it is the captain again, who scores the winner for his side. Real Madrid win a corner after Tyton tips a header over the bar and crashes against the post. Kroos swings in the ball and Ramos is there to bundle home the winner.
90+3' GOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLL!! SERGIO RAMOS IT IS... WHO ELSE. REAL MADRID secure a late late win.
It all started with Morata trying to lift Tyton up. Sidnei barges into Morata and pushes him away from his keeper. Ramos joins the melee and pushes Sidnei as Lucas Vasquez joins the brawl. Both the sides are trying to calm the situation. And finally they succeed.
89' YELLOW CARD: Keylor Navas and Sergio Ramos are booked in the aftermath of the brawl. Ramos misses the next match due to the booking.
Sidnei of Deportivo is also booked for pushing Morata.
88' A huge brawl breaks inside Real Madrid's penalty box.
86' Both sides are showing urgency. Real Madrid are currently on course to continue their unbeaten streak and match Barcelona's record.
REAL MADRID are back in it. 2-2. It is Lucas Vasquez who curls in a cross from the right wing and Mariano is there to shoulder it past Tyton. He has done it again. A new star in the making?
84' GOOOOOAAAAAAAAALLLLLL!!! Mariano scores his first La Liga goal.
82' SUBSTITUTION: Ryan Babel is replaced by Faycal Fajr.
81' SUBSTITUTION: Marcelo comes on to replace Danilo. This is the final roll of dice from Zidane. Can Marcelo make the difference for Madrid?
Barcelona recorded a 3-0 win over Osasuna earlier in the day and it was a brace by who else but Lionel Messi. Madrid are currently 2-1 down and Ronaldo is there in the stands but he cannot help the side. Will Madrid rue resting the three stars for the game?
76' Babel is in the thick of things. The former Liverpool man has been instrumental for the away side. But can Deportivo hold on to this?
74' Chance! Morata squares the ball for Mariano who fails to get on the end of it. Mariano was not more than 6 yards out and had a great chance to score.
72' Mariano comes on to replace Isco as Zidane throws the kitchen sink.
Mariano scored a hat-trick in his last game for Madrid against Cultural Leonesa in the Copa del Rey. Can he inspire them to yet another win?
70' YELLOW CARD: Alvaro Morata is booked for dissent.
Real Madrid are on the verge of seeing their 34-match unbeaten streak come to a screeching halt. Only 5 minutes back they were leading and now they find themselves one goal down. Is there a late comeback on the cards?
Can Madrid match Barcelona's 35-match unbeaten streak?
67' SUBSTITUTION: Lucas Vasquez has comes on to replace Marco Asensio.
What has happened!! Real Madrid have blew their 1 goal lead within 2 minutes. And it is the former Castilla player who has done the damage for the away side.
65' GOOOOAALLLL!!!! Real Madrid are in shambles. Deportivo score their second and it is Joselu again.
Andone makes his way down the right-hand side and squares it for the goalscorer. The substitute turns and shoots with the ball taking a wicked deflection of Navas before looping up and nestling into the back of the net.
63' GOOOOOOOOAAALLLL!!! Deportivo equalise through Joselu. WHAT A GOAL SON! WHAT A GOAL!!!!
The former Castilla player unleashes one from the end of the box and Navas has no chance of stopping that. What a strike.
It was Casemiro who gave away possession and Deportivo have punished them.
61' It is a very dull game going on. Real will be happy to secure a 1-0 win, especially without Ronaldo. But will Deportivo fight back?
59' YELLOW CARD: Albentosa is booked for lunging into Nacho.
58' SUBSTITUTION: Joselu comes on to replace Emre Colak.
57' Danilo is down outside his own box. He looks t be in pain. The Brazilian looks to have outstretched while tackling a Deportivo player.
55' Madrid win a free-kick deep in Deportivo's half and Kroos stands over it. However, they fail to do any sort of damage from it.
53' Deportivo have come out of their half and are looking to do some damage. Can they come back into this or will the two shots off the crossbar prove too costly?
It was Isco who cut in from the left and passed it to Morata. The Spaniard takes a touch, turns and then unleashes a strike past Tyton from outside of the box. It looked unlikely that Madrid would be able to break down Deportivo and it took something special for them to break the deadlock. GAME ON!
50' GOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAALLLLLLL!!!!
Just as i was saying that, Morata has opened the scoring with a screamer from 20 yards.
49' Madrid continue to camp in Deportivo's half as they probe and try to unlock a resolute Deportivo side. Can Zidane's side regain their 6-point lead over Barcelona? Or will Deportivo cause an upset.
48' Madrid try to make their way into the Deportivo box but Danilo is adjudged to have handled the ball. I must add, incorrectly.
47' Real Madrid continue to dominate possession but can they make something of it?
46' And we are back underway.
The players are making their way back onto the pitch. Will we see a goal in the second half?

Can Real Madrid break the deadlock in the second half. Or can Deportivo cause an upset and move away from the relegation zone?
Real Madrid have dominated possession but have failed to make anything of note. Deportivo had the better chances and the two shots that came back off the post might come back to haunt them later in the game. The Santiago Bernabeu outfit are clearly missing their star man - Cristiano Ronaldo - who is sitting in the stands.
HALF-TIME: Real Madrid 0-0 Deportivo la Coruna
45' YELLOW CARD: Ryan Babel is booked for a foul on Pepe.
James tries to release it for Danilo, who fails to control the ball and goes down inside the box.
44' Danilo goes down inside the box looking for a penalty but the referee waves play on and correctly so. Someone is doing their best to fill the void left by Ronaldo.
