GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO... NO! Athletic Bilbao think they have scored a second goall, with Garcia turning home from a Benat freekick. But the flag was up for offside!
36'
Real Madrid are flustered here. They have been rattled by that goal which came just as they were starting to take a grip of the game. They need to get to half time without conceding another.

What a noise inside San Mames! It's been an incredible spectacle from the very moment the game kicked off, but that goal for the home side has only ramped things up even further.

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL! Athletic Bilbao 1 (32 mins - Inaki Williams) Real Madrid 0. Who scored it? Nobody knows, but what matters is that Athletic Bilbao have the lead over Real Madrid. Williams' flick sent the cross towards the goal, but Muniain might have nicked it from his teammate right at the end!

32'
Simon has looked very confident and sure of himself in these opening 30 minutes. The youngster was recalled from a loan at Elche and is now playing against Real Madrid for Athletic.
31'
30'
For the first time in the match, Athletic Bilbao are sitting deep and allowing Real Madrid to pass the ball around the midfield. They are taking a break before ramping up the pressure again.
29'
ASENSIO DRAWS THE SAVE! That was a powerful strike from Asensio. He cut on to his left foot just inside the penalty area and smashed a shot towards goal, but Simon makes the save.
28'
What is now notable is that Benzema is playing up front on his own for Real Madrid, with Bale being dropped back into the midfield. Is Lopetegui trying to wrestle control away from Athletic?
27'
26'
We are now 26 minutes into this game and the pace hasn't dropped much. Can these two teams keep this up for the full 90 minutes? They must need a breather by now, surely.

SHOT FROM BERCHICHE! Athletic Bilbao come flying forward on the counter attack, with the ball swept out to the left back. He takes the shot, but Courtois makes the save.
24'
23'
Modric wins the ball deep inside the Athletic Bilbao half and tries to find Bale at the back post, but the delivery was just a little too close to Simon, who comes out to gather the cross.
22'
Williams looks lively up front, but the problem is that he isn't exactly known for his finishing instinct. This is where Athletic Bilbao miss the presence of Aduriz up front.
21'
Ramos got away with one there. The Real Madrid captain was caught on the ball, allowing Athletic Bilbao to surge forward. But the final ball was lacking from the home side.
20'
19'
SUSAETA OVER! More space for Athletic Bilbao to push into right on the edge of the Real Madrid penalty box. This time it's Susaeta who flashes a shot high and wide of the target.
18'
ACROSS GOAL! Another half chance for Williams, who has played down the channel. The area he took the shot from was a low percentage area, though. It flashes across the goal.
17'
Athletic Bilbao look confident and sure of themselves whenever they have the ball. This is the kind of football Berizzo favours. We saw this from him during his time at Celta Vigo.
