  2. FULL-TIME

    Real Madrid 3-2 Levante

    The final whistle goes. An escape for Real Madrid - their first home win this season.

  3. Real Madrid 3-2 Levante

    Levante are really going for this. Real switch off as Jose Luis Morales is fed in down the right wing and he actually shots instead of crossing, almost catching Thibaut Courtois out at his near post, but it's into the side-netting.

  4. Real Madrid 3-2 Levante

    It's almost an equaliser! Thibaut Courtois makes his first save of the game with an instinctive stop as Jose Campana's free-kick was turned towards goal by Ruben Vezo's header.

  5. Real Madrid 3-2 Levante

    Free-kick to Levante about 35 yards out. Probably crossing range.

  6. INJURY TIME

    Real Madrid 3-2 Levante

    FIVE minutes added on.

  7. YELLOW CARD

    Real Madrid 3-2 Levante

    Levante left-back Carlos Clerc, who has been excellent, is booked for fouling Eden Hazard.

  8. Real Madrid 3-2 Levante

    Almost a clincher for Real Madrid. Lucas Vazquez's cross finds James Rodriguez, who tries to place his shot into the bottom corner but it's just wide.

  9. SUBSTITUTION

    Real Madrid 3-2 Levante

    No hat-trick for Karim Benzema today. He's replaced by former Eintracht Frankfurt striker Luka Jovic.

  10. Real Madrid 3-2 Levante

    Toni Kroos finds James Rodriguez and he curls his shot over the bar.

  11. Real Madrid 3-2 Levante

    Thibaut Courtois catches Enis Bardhi's corner. Real try to break but Levante are back on the attack now.

  12. Real Madrid 3-2 Levante

    When's the last time you saw Thibaut Courtois play well? He's conceded both of Levante's efforts on target today.

  13. Real Madrid 3-2 Levante

    Eden Hazard is involved as Real work a ball from left to right and then back into the centre, but Karim Benzema's effort from just outside the area is well wide. He snatched at it.

  14. Real Madrid 3-2 Levante

    Levante - who have won two of their opening three games - are going for this and Enis Bardhi blasts a shot high and wide of the near post.

  15. Real Madrid 3-2 Levante

    Levante could become the first side to avoid a La Liga defeat after trailing by three goals against Real Madrid this century.

  16. goal

    GOAL - Real Madrid 3-2 Levante

    Gonzalo Melero

    Well, well, well. Levante are back in this.

    Gonzalo Melero, a former Real Madrid B player, is there at the back post to head home Jose Campana's left-wing cross.

    Should Thibaut Courtois have been beaten at his near post? Probably not.

  17. Real Madrid 3-1 Levante

    For all Real's dominance, a Levante goal now would make things nervy. Carlos Clerc has a shot blocked from long range.

  18. Real Madrid 3-1 Levante

    Another Vinicius Jr chance but Aitor Fernandez is off his line to block the shot.

  19. Real Madrid 3-1 Levante

    Marcelo crosses in for Vinicius Jr, whose header is high and wide.

  20. SUBSTITUTION

    Real Madrid 3-1 Levante

    Double change for Levante as Roger Marti and Gonzalo Melero replace Ruben Rochina and Oscar Duarte.
