    Nothing can stop him at the moment. And certainly not a static Luís Maximiano, with the Almeria keeper hesitant to come off his line as Jude Bellingham steals in an nods the ball past him from Toni Kroos' delivery from the left.

    Almeria are giving this a right go. Adri Embarba swings the ball in from the right and Largie Ramazani goes for an overhead kick from 18 yards.

    Great technique from the former Manchester United youngster but an relatively easy save for Andriy Lunin in the middle of his goal. The Real keeper has had some work to do this evening mind.

    Toni Kroos

    What a sweet strike from the German, who places his curling effort into the right corner from Dani Carvajal's cut back.

    This might not stand though. There is a home player down and the referee is making his way across to the screen.

    Largie Ramazani now sweeps an effort wide. The home side are getting closer.

    Largie Ramazani doesn't catch a shot from the edge of the box but it still causes Real keeper Andriy Lunin all sorts of bother and he just about clears at full stretch.

    Rodrygo with a snapshot for Real as we head towards the break. A panicked Luis Maximiano is just about behind that and saves.

    The hosts are finishing this first half with a flourish. Luis Suarez gets away down the right and weaves inside but sees his shot blocked by Antonio Rudiger.

    Oh. What a chance that is? Largie Ramazani gets in at the back stick but is stretching and can't get any power in his header, which Andriy Lunin easily collects.
