What an electrifying evening of European football.

Jude Bellingham scored twice as Real Madrid thumped surprise title challengers Girona to move five points clear at the top of La Liga.

And then Bayer Leverkusen underlined their Bundesliga title credentials with a resounding victory over Bayern Munich.

We'll leave it there folks but thanks for joining us.

Xabi Alonso is embracing his players. It has been an incredible night for Bayer Leverkusen.

Bayer Leverkusen remain unbeaten and go five points clear at the top of the Bundesliga.

You can barely hear the final whistle. The whole stadium is partying like they know Xabi Alonso's side could be destined to do something very special.

Oh dear. Eric Dier knocks a simple pass to his right-back out of play. It has been very much one of those night's for Bayern, who have won the Bundesliga in each of the previous 11 seasons.

Five minutes have been added to this match but to be honest Bayern look like they could play for another five hours and not score.

Leverkusen are really tactically disciplined and there are no gaps for Bayern.

Jeremie Frimpong is just offside as he gets put through on goal for the hosts.

Bayer Leverkusen have looked a cut above here.

Girona are put of out their misery by the referee.

Joselu steps up and smashes his spot kick against the base of the left post.

Yan Couto's nightmare is complete. He brings down jinking teenager Arda Guler and Real Madrid have a penalty in the final minute of normal time.

The visitors are just starting to offer a little more threat. If they nick a goal here we could be in for a grandstand finale.

A last throw of the dice from Bayern Munich?

Thomas Tuchel gives Raphael Guerreiro and Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting some last-minute instructions as they enter the fray for Sacha Boey and Jamal Musiala.

Grimaldo is having a superb game, in this second half he is dominating it.

Back over in Germany there is a carnival atmosphere at the BayArena now.

The hosts have restricted Bayern to just one shot on target this evening.

Or are they? Fran García, on for Ferland Mendy, goes on a marauding run from left back and drives an effort wide.

Almost straight from the goal kick Girona lose the ball and Brahim Diaz skews badly wide for the hosts.

A welcome sight for Girona's players... Vinicius Jr goes off and is replaced by Arda Guler.

Real have got this match won and look to just be going through the motions now.

As it stands Bayer have a five-point lead at the top of the Bundesliga. Not pleasant viewing for Harry Kane and co.

He left Tottenham to win trophies, but on this evidence, winning the German top flight or the Champions League will be a major ask.

Almost a third for Xabi Alonso's side. The hosts have Bayern chasing all over the pitch before the ball is worked right to Jeremie Frimpong, who drags a low effort across the face of goal.

There are a lot of questions Thomas Tuchel will have to answer after this game.
