FULL TIME !!! Valencia 2-1 Madrid!! BIG BLOW FOR Zidane and his men!! Barca nad Sevilla will rejoice this result!

94' One last opportunity for Madrid as they earn a corner!!

93' RONALDO HEADS WIDE!! Great chance goes begging!! It was a great cross from Marcelo but from point blank range he misses the target! Replays showed he was offside though!

91' BALE"S HEADER DEFLECTED OFF THE LINE!! Valencia hanging on by the skin of their teeth!

91' FOUR MINUTES OF ADDED TIME! Madrid have a corner!

90' Parejo shown a yellow card!!

89' Bale tries a volley first time as the ball drops to him. It's just wide of the post as Ronaldo tries to direct it towards goal!

87' ALL SORTS OF PANIC AT THE BACK FOR VALENCIA! First Parejo goes down injured then Alves punches two Real Madrid crosses. Ronaldo uses a back heel to keep it in but a foul is given against the visitors and the danger passes for now

86' Vasquez tries to chip a ball to the back post which was a clever idea but there was too much on it and it drifts out of play

83' It looks like Modric coming off has stripped the team of some of the creativity. Madrid are finding it a little harder to create chances and look lacklustre since the Croatian's exit

80' He hits the wall and then his cross is too high with Ramos in an offside position anyway. Frustrating for the fans

79' Ronaldo fouled in position A1. The Portuguese will finally get the chance to take a free-kick!

77' Casemiro fires way over. Too much power and no accuracy. Guess they only give one wonder goal per defensive midfielder every year

76' Luka Modric surprisingly comes off and Lucas Vasquez is the man to replace him

74' Madrid have a little over 15 minutes to save themselves here.

73' Mario Suarez will replace Simeone Zaza

72' Munir goes down on the edge of the box quite dramatically and it looks like the referee made the right call by not giving it!

69' BALE ALMOST MAKING AN INSTANT IMPACT! The Welshman drives a curling low cross into the box which Ronaldo almost gets on the end of!

66' ZAZA comes close again! The Italian almost toe pokes it home but Navas makes himself big and stops the shot. At the other end Mangala makes a rash challenge on Benzema and gets a yellow for his troubles!

62' Ronaldo is on the ground injured. Looks like a blow to the head

62' BALE COMES ON FOR JAMES! The BBC are back once again!

60' PAREJO ALMOST MAKES IT 3-1!! The former Madrid product nutmegs to players on his way inside the box right on the byline but the angle is difficult and Navas makes the save

60' Valencia with a free-kick in a good position! Can they capitalize?

58' Barcelona and Sevilla would love for Real Madrid to drop points today but still a long way to go in this game

55' Ronaldo goes down in the box but referee says no penalty

52' Marcelo drives in a cross but it deflects of a defender and Alves gathers safely. The away side slowly gaining momentum in this game

49' James Rodriguez with a poor cross into the box. He ahsn;t really impressed so far in the game

47' Marcelo with a strike from just inside the box but blocked and then cleared away! He was set up by a Benzema as Madrid continue in search of that equalizer

We are back underway!

Is it time to bring on Gareth Bale now?

HALF TIME: Valencia 2-1 Real Madrid

45' RONALDO ALMOST SCORED A 2nd!!! He skips past a challenge on the edge and then unleashes a shot that just goes wide of the post thanks to a deflection from a defender! That was going in!

44' RONALDO SCORES A BRILLIANT HEADER!!! IT'S 2-1 He is found by a pinpoint Marcelo cross!!

40' Ronaldo with another piledriver of a shot but it has no accuracy

37' Nani has gone down injured and has been asked to be subbed

37' NANI sets up Dani Parejo on the edge of the box but he skies it over the bar

35' NERVY MOMENTS AND DISORDER AT THE BACK FOR VALENCIA! Several crosses come in and somehow Valencia clear their lines

32' Casemiro fouled by Garay

30' KEYLOR NAVAS MAKES A GREAT SAVE FROM THE FREE-KICK! Parejo arrowed that towards the near post and the keeper had to scramble and make the save punching it away with both hands!

30' Valencia have a free kick and Parejo is over it!

27' The game has turned slightly scruffy with a lot of tackles going in. Madrid have lots of possession but can't break them down

22' Meanwhile on the counter Garay's sliding challenge leaves Marcelo on the ground and he is currently receiving treatment

21' TREMENDOUS SAVE FROM ALVES AGAIN! Benzema tries one from distance! The curling effort was going sneak just under the post but Alves tips it over acrobatically!

19' Zaza gets a yellow and now has to be very careful

18' SAVE BY ALVES FROM RONALDO!! James plays Ronaldo through and the forward tries to beat the keeper at the far post with a shot from a tight angle but Alves is on hand to save it!

15' JAMES HITS THE POST!!! Benzema finds Ronaldo in the box out wide and after a couple of stepovers he squares the ball but the angle for James is a little too tight and he can find the finish!

14' IT WAS ALMOST 3!! Varane just about deflecting a shot over the bar but the danger isn't over! They have a corner!

11' We were just mentioning how important this game for Madrid is considering their past record and this being their game in hand as well

11' Madrid win another corner

9' Their other January signing Obellana scores the goal! It was a fierce counter-attack by the hosts as Nani set him up who squeezed his finish underneath Keylor Navas. Maybe the Costa Rican could have done better but Madrid have a lot to do now!
