We're under way at Vallecas! It's Rayo Vallecano against Real Madrid in La Liga!

FULL TIME: Rayo Vallecano 0-2 Real Madrid

Rayo Vallecano have given it their all tonight, but in the end Real Madrid's quality and threat in attack has shone through. Ancelotti must take credit for turning this game around.

Three minutes of stoppage time to be played at the end of the second half.

Real Madrid sub: Gareth Bale and James Rodriguez OFF, Nacho Fernandez and Javier Hernandez ON.

Real Madrid are still having to work hard for their clean sheet here. The home side are having some late pressure as they look for a way back into this game. Time is running out though.

Good save from Casillas to deny Manucho. The Rayo Vallecano striker gets up high to head towards goal, but the Real Madrid goalkeeper is on hand to turn it behind for a corner kick.

This has been an impressive second half response from Real Madrid. They came out all guns blazing after the break and have got their rewards. Ronaldo, Bale and Benzema have been excellent.

Real Madrid should have had a third! Bale beats the keeper to a through ball, pulls the ball back for Isco, but Julian makes the stop from the Spanish playmaker. Should have scored.

I mentioned it at half time, bu Rayo Vallecano have indeed been made to rue their missed chances in the first half. They had enough opportunities to go into the break with a lead.

Rayo Vallecano sub: Adrian Embarba OFF, Javier Ignacio Aquino ON.

The away side still feel aggrieved at some of the decisions from the referee. Still can't believe he didn't award Ronaldo a penalty. It was the most blatant penalty decision you're ever likely to see.

Real Madrid look set to come away from this game with three points, but they will be made to count the cost of suspensions for their next Liga game. Kroos, Bale and Ronaldo will all miss out.

Rayo Vallecano made Real Madrid sweat in this game last season by scoring two late goals. So perhaps Ancelotti's side shouldn't count their chickens (or points) just yet.

Benzema has been replaced with Isco as Real Madrid see out this game. The pre-match discussion was over whether Isco or James would play? Well now they're both on the pitch.

The response to going a goal down had been a good one from Rayo Vallecano, but there's not much you can do about quality like that. Real Madrid are just so good going forward.

GOOOOOOOOOOOAL! Rayo Vallecano 0 Real Madrid 2 (75 mins - James Rodriguez). What an excellent goal! Real come flying forward on the counter attack, with Ronaldo feeding James, who sweeps home from the edge of the box.

Nacho stings the palms of Casillas! The left back fired off a shot at goal from about 25 yards out, but the Real Madrid goalkeeper was behind the effort and make the crucial save.
