Real Madrid right-back Dani Carvajal comes in with a reckless sliding tackle on Antoine Griezmann, who had touched the ball away from the Spaniard. Definite yellow card.  

Real Madrid, who have been the better team, win a corner as Toni Kroos' shot is deflected wide by Stefan Savic. The corner comes into the box but Atletico clear after several attempts.

Fernando Torres has a couple of clashes with Sergio Ramos, winning one free-kick and failing to get another.

The striker says this is the biggest game of his career, despite winning a World Cup, two Euros with Spain and the Champions League with Chelsea.

Five minutes in and Real Madrid already on top with possession. Can they make it count though?

A brilliant save by Jan Oblak keeps Atletico Madrid level. 

Gareth Bale's free-kick from the right finds Casemiro six yards out, the Brazilian turns it towards goal with a first-time effort and somehow Oblak changes his body shape to keep it out.

That's Oblak's 38th save in the Champions League this season - more than anyone else.

Atletico's Koke has the first shot of the game, but it's a shot in name only. His weak bouncing effort is straight at Keylor Navas.

Now Real Madrid have a free-kick as Gareth Bale goes down after being caught by Gabi.

"The Real Madrid players are trying to officiate the game themselves, get into the referee's head, but thankfully Mark Clattenburg is having none of it."

Real Madrid left-back Marcelo plays a risky pass across the back and Fernando Torres bursts into life, but Pepe just beats him to it and gets it clear. And then goes down screaming. Standard.

Cristiano Ronaldo puts a cross into the box but Diego Godin hoofs clear. 

Godin has has made more interceptions (37) and defensive clearances (71) than any other player in this season’s Champions League before today.

Thirty seconds in and we've had a meaty challenge already, Koke catches Casemiro with a high boot. Mark Clattenburg has a word but no booking.

Here we go, 11 of the 22 players on the pitch played in this game two years ago when Real Madrid won 4-1 in extra time, having scored an injury-time equaliser.

Tony Ross: Why must we have this pre-game nonsense? What happened to the days when it was about all about the game.

Neither side's route to the final has been straightforward.

Real came out of a group with Paris St-Germain, before beating Roma 4-0 on aggregate in the last 16.

Cristiano Ronaldo scored a second-leg hat-trick as they beat Wolfsburg 3-2 and then eliminated Manchester City 1-0 in the semi-finals.

Atletico, who had Benfica in their group, almost lost in the first knockout round - needing penalties to beat PSV Eindhoven.

After that they beat Barcelona 3-2 and Bayern Munich on away goals.

Manchester United chief executive Ed Woodward is at the match tonight. I wonder, could it be a business trip...

Oh wow, Andrea Bocelli is singing the Champions League song as the players line up. I'm a big fan of that.

Oh it was only a quick ditty, here the Madrid rivals come.

Andrea Bocelli is now banging out a tune. Players still in the tunnel.

On the pitch is still a huge mat, crests and loads of people. The trophy is now carried onto the pitch.

No way this is kicking off in two minutes.

No way.
