    Back at the Santiago Bernabeu there's shouts of 'ole' from the Real fans after every pass now.

    We're only in the 65th minute. Brutal!

    PSG 2-0 Monaco

    Lionel Messi races through the inside-right channel and he takes the effort on with his right peg... low... daisy cutter... glances the post and slides wide.

    Moments later he's chasing down a through ball but can only flick it across the face of goal. He's getting closer.

    Real are playing the game at their own tempo now. They're finding it very easy to hold on to possession.

    Another opening for Atletico as Mario Hermoso rises highest to meet a deep cross but can only head the ball over the bar.

    Tough chance.

    Interesting that both Real goals have come just as Atletico have looked at their most dangerous.

    Carlo Ancelotti's team are counter-attacking masters.

    Atletico have to change something. Matheus Cunha and Angel Correa off.

    Another classic counter and another goal for the Real Madrid.

    Vinicius Junior sets it up again, laying the ball on a plate for Marco Asensio who sweeps the ball into the far corner.

    Thomas Lemar is getting on the ball further forward now for Atletico, he looks so sharp in the final third.

    That said, the final ball though is still missing for the visitors...

    PSG 2-0 Monaco

    Meanwhile, Paris St-Germain are just keeping Monaco at distance with the jab.

    The away side have had nine shots tonight, that's two more than PSG. Monaco have been in charge of their own downfall and their hosts don't turn down a free lunch.

    Joao Felix is dragging this Atletico side up the pitch. He turns provider, sliding through Matheus Cunha whose shot is matched at a tight angle by Thibaut Courtois.

    Felix has been Atletico's best player and he's only been on the pitch for seven minutes!

    And now Atletico do get on the ball, driving forward.

    Substitute Joao Felix ends up with possession on the edge of the box and fires a low shot that stings the palms of Thibaut Courtois in the Real goal.

    Big chance for Real Madrid as Marco Asensio goes through but can't get the ball out of his feet in time to get a shot off.

    It's been all Real Madrid since the restart. They're bossing this one.

    Just seen a glimpse of Luis Suarez warming up.

    I'd be very surprised if we don't see him come on this evening.

    Real Madrid 1-0 Atletico Madrid

    And we're off again.

    A sub for Real Madrid as well as goalscorer Karim Benzema comes off for Luka Jovic.

    No surprises there as Benzema did miss Real's the midweek game with a slight niggle.

    HT: Real Madrid 1-0 Atletico Madrid

    Two changes for Atletico Madrid at the break.

    Yannick Carrasco and Antoine Griezmann are replaced with Thomas Lemar and Joao Felix.

    Agree with that?

    Kieran Trippier is one of a handful of Atletico players warming up on the pitch right now.

    Will he be making an appearance in the second half?
