Real Sociedad 1-3 Real Madrid
Nearly a fourth for the visitors, but Isco dipping drive from outside the area drops over the crossbar, instead of under it.
PSG 0-0 Lyon
Neymar curls the free-kick towards the goalkeeper's side and it is well aimed into the top corner, but Anthony Lopes springs high to his right to push the ball to safety.
Good shot, great save.
PSG 0-0 Lyon
Right then. PSG have a free-kick on the edge of the box after Lyon skipper Nabil Fekir barged over Neymar.
The Brazilian picks himself off the turf and stands over the ball...
Real Sociedad 1-3 Real Madrid
Former Southampton striker Juanmi replaces Xabi Prieto for Real Sociedad.
PSG 0-0 Lyon
A impressive Nabil Fekir cuts in from the right and PSG goalkeeper Alphonse Areola has to deal with his low shot which was sneaking in at the front post.
Real Sociedad 1-3 Real Madrid
Sociedad striker Willian Jose the latest man booked by the referee.
Seconds later, Casemiro has his name taken too.
The ref has got lots to write up for the morning's report.
Gareth Bale
Hahahaaaaaaa. See my last entry.
Bang on the hour mark, Gareth Bale gets Real Madrid's third...and what a finish it is.
A long ball is played into the right channel and Real Sociedad full-back Kevin Rodrigues looks like he has it covered.
But Welshman Bale gets on his skates, chasing Rodrigues down, outpacing him into the box and dinking a gorgeous chip over Geronimo Rulli and into the net.
Sociedad's 100% record about to go up in smoke.
Real Sociedad 1-2 Real Madrid
Almost an hour on the clock and Gareth Bale gets - what I remember - is his first touch on the ball.
No wonder he gets booed by his own supporters.
The Welshman has been really poor today.
PSG 0-0 Lyon
Back under for the second half in Paris.
An improvement would be nice.
Real Sociedad 1-2 Real Madrid
Sergio Canales shot - against his old club - straight into the temporary stand.
And that is his last action, his boss has seen enough.
Off he comes and former Arsenal player Carlos Vela replaces him.
Real Sociedad 1-2 Real Madrid
Sociedad defender Diego Llorente is sniffing a goal today.
This time this strike from the outside of the box is straight at Keylor Navas.
Real Sociedad 1-2 Real Madrid
This should be the game wrapped up.
Marco Asensio plays a sublime pass through to Borja Mayoral who is in on goal.
The youngster smashes a shot straight at Geronimo Rulli and is quickest to react to the rebound, but can only lash his effort into the side netting.
I'd say it was a sitter, from around five yards out.
Real Sociedad 1-2 Real Madrid
Great start to the second half by Adnan Januzaj, looking like the player who first broke through at Manchester United.
He sprints down the right and puts a cross into the box which Sergio Ramos has to clear.
From the resulting corner, home defender Diego Llorente heads straight at Keylor Navas.
Real Sociedad 1-2 Real Madrid
If the referee spots this, it's a penalty.
Xabi Prieto goes down in the box after being held by Theo Hernandez, but the man in yellow - nor his assistant - spot the infringement.
VAR?
Real Sociedad 1-2 Real Madrid
Off we go again, more of the same please.
Real Sociedad 1-2 Real Madrid
The players are in the tunnel and about to come out for the second half.
Looks like Gareth Bale is coming on for Real Madrid.
Wait, what?? He played the first 45 minutes?
Could have fooled me. The Welshman was anonymous.
This week, Mina, James, Julien and Rafa discuss defeats for Bayern, Milan and Monaco, ask if Carlo Ancelotti really is a good manager and find out which player Pamela Anderson’s dating.
All that plus Dybala, Real Sociedad and parking problems.
PSG 0-0 Lyon
Goalless. Not the best spectacle, tbh.
PSG 0-0 Lyon
The world's most expensive player has not has his best performance in a PSG shot so far.
His first real involvement comes a minute before half time, cutting inside and striking a shot straight at Anthony Lopes.
PSG 0-0 Lyon
Wasted.
Handed a start today in place of Thomas Meunier, full-back Dani Alves zooms down the right and from a good position in the box, cuts the ball back to nobody.
In fact, it is a superb interception by Tanguy Alvaro. The Lyon man nicks the ball off the toe of Layvin Kurzawa, who was ready to shoot into the net from six yards out.
