    I've just seen a replay of Raphael Varane's own goal.

    He gets his feet in a terrible tangle and ends up beating Thibaut Courtois from close range.

    That was bizarre.

    Raphael Varane (own goal)

    Incredible!

    Frantic scenes inside Real's penalty area as a cross is diverted past his own keeper by Raphael Varane.

    Was there a foul in the build-up? No, says the ref. The goal stands. Amazing!

    That's a great lay-off by Isco and Federico Valverde is galloping away until he is sent crashing by Carlos Soler. The goalscorer gets himself a yellow card.

    Valencia, who have been second best for a good chunk of this game, suddenly have the momentum.

    That penalty has really lifted the home team's confidence and here they come again.
