YELLOW CARD: Diego Ribas (Atletico Madrid)
88'
Luis has played well tonight. He has played more like a left winger than a left back, but he has provided an outlet on that side for the entire game and has stretched the playing surface as a result.
87'
I'm a little surprised Atletico Madrid aren't going for the kill in the final few minutes here. In a title race that could come down to goal difference this would seem to be a good chance to improve their goals scored column.
86'
Juanfran is floored by Nono, who missed the crucial penalty in Betis' Europa League exit to Sevilla during the week. It's not been the best week for the club, to say the least.
85'
So this result will take Atletico temporarily top of La Liga, at least until the Clasico later tonight. A point for Real Madrid would put them back on top of the pile.
84'
Calderon is on the touchline, looking a little dismayed at the way his side have let this slip in the second half. They've been handicapped by the sending off of Rodriguez.
83'
Nono whips a wicked cross into the box from a freekick, but the referee blows up when Courtois comes off his line and loses the ball. That looked harsh on Cedrick, who was adjudged to be the culprit.

Atletico Madrid sub: Koke OFF, Jose Sosa ON.
81'
Thankfully for Atletico Madrid, Costa has focused on scoring goals and taking chances rather than starting fights in this second half. His battle with Paulao has cooled off since the opening 45 minutes.
80'
Having said that, Simeone seems to be telling his players to calm the pace of the game down, so maybe they're quite content with passing the game out and settling for a 2-0 victory.
78'
Betis are holding out for full time now. This has become a case of 'how many?' for Atletico Madrid. At the moment, it's just two but the way this game is going it won't end that way.

Villa stops Costa's header from finding the net! The Brazilian born striker meets Koke's freekick and has the ball headed into the net for 3-0, but it strikes an offside Villa and flies wide. Unfortunate for the away team.
76'
Villa is brought down rather cynically by Chica and the Spanish striker is writhing about the ground in quite a bit of pain. Somehow the Betis fullback has avoided a booking for that foul.

Real Betis sub: Lolo Reyes OFF, Javier Matilla ON.
74'
Costa almost pounces on a loose backpass by Juanfran but Chica is alert and comes away with the ball, as the Atletico Madrid striker chases him all the way up to the halfway line.
73'
Betis are pegged in their own half here. Actually, more like their own box. Atletico are looking for a third and the way they're playing you wouldn't bet against them finding it.
72'
Do Real Betis have anything left in the tank? Molina is still trying to spark counter attacks but he's the only one who looks to still have motivation after the last 25 minutes. It's all fallen apart for the home side.
