Real Madrid and Villarreal face each other on Sunday, december 17, 2023 at 20:00, the match takes place in Estadio Santiago Bernabéu of Madrid, The event It's one more meeting La Liga.

Commentaries

Madrid return to the LaLiga summit after a convincing 4-1 hammering of Villarreal in the Spanish capital. Bellingham, as has become the common theme, opened the scoring before Rodrygo’s close-range finish was allowed to stand after a VAR review overturned an original offside decision in the first half. Morales pulled one back for the struggling visitors after the interval, only for Diaz’s fine individual goal to restore Los Blancos’ two-goal cushion after dancing from near the halfway line to convert past Jorgensen. Modric would add a fourth soon after, his fourth goal in 18 games against Villarreal in the competition, as Ancelotti’s side roared to victory despite losing Alaba to a first-half injury. Girona could regain top spot in the league when on Monday they host Alaves, who Madrid visit three days later. That is all for now, until next time! Goodbye.

85'

Capoue is the next Villarreal man to be shown a yellow card after a late hack of a challenge from behind on Ceballos. The French midfielder will miss the next game against Celta Vigo due to suspension.

84'

Diaz comes off to a standing ovation after his remarkable second-half individual goal. Joselu is introduced up top for the closing stages.

83'

Tchouameni lunges into a late tackle on Capoue and goes into the book for his efforts. A return from injury is celebrated with a yellow card by the Madrid midfielder.

79'

Scorer of Villarreal's only goal after his fifth strike in as many LaLiga games, Morales comes off for Brereton, who is yet to score for the Spanish side.

79'

The experienced Kroos also makes way for Tchouameni.

78'

Ancelotti protects Bellingham, who opened the scoring but was on a booking, by bringing on Ceballos for the Madrid midfielder.

74'

Unsurprisingly, Marcelino hooks Akhomach off for Trigueros. The Villarreal winger was starting to take his anger out on the Madrid players with his poor tackles.

74'

Akhomach takes his frustrations out and goes into the referee's book after clattering through the back of Bellingham. The Villarreal midfielder had no need to commit a pointless foul.

68'

GOOOOOOOOOOALLLLLLL! 4-1 MADRID! That is game over as Los Blancos hit Villarreal for four. The visitors cause all of their own problems, failing to play out from the back through goalkeeper Jorgensen. Los Blancos recover possession high up the pitch after a Capoue mistake before Rodrygo rides two tackles and offloads to Modric, who sweeps a left-footed finish into the bottom-left corner. Madrid would have had a penalty for the earlier tackle on Rodrygo, but the goal will do them just fine, too!

67'

Alti also goes into the book for his involvement in the altercation with Bellingham. Play restarts with a Madrid free-kick.

67'

Bellingham must be careful. The Madrid midfielder gets involved in an off-the-ball tussle with Alti, pushing the Villarreal defender to the floor. The referee cautions the England international for that altercation.

64'

WHAT A GOOOOOALLLLLLL! BRAHIM DIAZ MAKES IT 3-1 MADRID! That is sensational from the Los Blancos forward. Garcia slips a simple pass into the feet of Diaz, who spins from near the halfway line and leaves Mandi chasing shadows. The Madrid attacker makes it towards the area, twisting onto his right foot when faking to shoot before rolling an assured finish into the bottom-right corner. Jorgensen gets a hand to the strike but cannot stop Diaz from scoring a remarkable individual goal!

54'

GOOOOOOOALLLLL! VILLARREAL PULL ONE BACK! A goal out of nothing gets the visitors back into this game as Madrid’s lead is cut to 2-1. Terrats has acres of space on the left-hand side, receiving from Parejo before slotting through for Morales. The Yellow Submarine striker makes no mistake, sliding a left-footed finish from inside the area past the legs of Lunin, who gets a touch but cannot keep the effort out.

46'

Captain Albiol also makes way at the break as Cuenca comes on at centre-back. That change is perhaps more tactical from Marcelino, rather than a fitness problem.

46'

Moreno left the pitch before half-time and does not return after the interval. Marcelino brings on Sorloth up top for Villarreal.

46'

Ancelotti wastes no time at the break, sending Fran Garcia on for Mendy. Madrid supporters will hope that is not another injury issue.

37'

GOOOOOOOALLLLL! 2-0 MADRID! The VAR overturns the original offside decision and Rodrygo’s goal stands to double the hosts’ lead! Modric’s right-sided corner cannoned around the Villarreal area after Rudiger’s first contact before Vazquez capitalised on the loose ball. The Madrid right-back touched onto Rodrygo, who was incorrectly flagged offside, before the Brazil forward arrowed into the bottom-left corner from inside the six-yard area. Ancelotti’s side are in full control now!

35'

The Madrid crowd sing the name of Alaba, who struggles to trudge off the pitch with a left-knee injury. Nacho replaces the Los Blancos centre-back, and takes the captain's armband off Modric as well.

29'

Vazquez offers an apologetic gesture towards Baena, who limps off the pitch after the Madrid right-back's foul earlier in the first half. Terrats is the man sent on to cover the left-hand side of Marcelino's midfield.

25'

GOOOOOOOOOOALLLLLLLL! 1-0 MADRID! Bellingham arrows out to the right-hand side before Vazquez sets back for Modric. The Croatia international dinks a first-time delivery towards the back post, where Bellingham rises highest to nod downwards into the bottom-right corner. Jorgensen gets a hand to the header but cannot keep the Los Blancos superstar from scoring yet again in LaLiga!
