Marcelo whips a brilliant cross towards Benzema that Oblak just about fists to safety at full stretch. Modric picks up the loose ball and drills a low effort just past the far post.

Koke fires a left-wing corner into the box, but it's a poor delivery that doesn't get beyond the first man. A real waste for Los Rojiblancos.

16'
CLOSE! Varane sees his clever header from Kroos' left-wing corner brilliantly saved by Oblak.

Another Kroos set piece is cleared by the visitors. It's one-way traffic as Marcelo screams for a spot kick after seeing his cross deflect out off what he claims was an Atletico arm. The referee is not interested.
