Good afternoon and welcome to Eurosport's LIVE coverage of the Spanish Liga game between Getafe and Real Madrid. We'll bring you all the action as it happens. Kick off is at 3.15pm.

Real Madrid escape with three points. There will be plenty for Zidane to consider afterwards. This wasn't a strong performance from the Spanish and European champions. They were lucky to came away with the win, but Benzema and Ronaldo dug them out.

FULL TIME: Getafe 1-2 Real Madrid

This game isn't over yet. That could very easily have been an equaliser for Getafe. Casilla looked unsure of himself as made that punch. He could have been punished for it.

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

LACEN WITH THE SHOT! Casilla's punch from a cross is a poor one, with the ball falling to a Getafe player 20 yards out. But his strike flashes high and wide of the Real goal.

This result will put pressure on both Atletico Madrid and Barcelona this evening ahead of their game at the Wanda Metropolitano. Real Madrid will close the gap on one of the two, or both.

Real Madrid look set to get away with one here. They have been dreadfully poor in the second half this afternoon, but with the likes of Benzema and Ronaldo you always stand a chance.

A booking as Getafe fall behind. Things looking bleak for the home side all of a sudden.

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL! Getafe 1 Real Madrid 2 (84 mins - Cristiano Ronaldo). Ronaldo has scored! Real Madrid have taken the lead! He's barely done a thing all game, but he's on hand to find the far corner of the net with a shot when it really matters.

This is Real Madrid's third and final change. Mayoral has been thrown on.

ARRAMBARRI DRAGS WIDE! The Real Madrid backline goes completely AWOL, allowing Arrambarri to druft through the middle, but from just inside the box he drags wide.

The hope for Real Madrid was that Atletico Madrid and Barcelona would take points off each other this evening, but that could be irrelevant if Real Madrid fail to take three points here.

The away side finally have control of possession, dictating things. Although that might be down to the fact that Getafe are sitting deeper and are inviting pressure on top of themselves.

THEO GOAL IS CHALKED OFF! Real Madrid, just for a moment, thought, they had taken the lead again, but the flag is up to deny Theo. The away side are cranking up the pressure.

THE KING OF SITTERS! I can't quite believe that Ronaldo has missed that. The ball fell to him about three yards out. The goal was gaping, and he somehow managed to put it wide.

And there's the second change for Real Madrid. Theo is on for Marcelo. That's a weird one.
