That was a soft penalty kick award in the first place. The Americans say "ball don't like" for something like that. Atletico Madrid will feel that justice was done by Sandro's spot kick miss.

36'

PENALTY KICK MISSED! Oh dear! Sandro grabbed the ball. This was a chance for him to score his first goal for his new club, but he has blasted his shot from the spot over the crossbar! He got his body shape all wrong!

35'

PENALTY KICK TO REAL VALLADOLID! The referee has decided that the tackle from Thomas on Sandro inside the box warranted a spot kick! That was a lengthy VAR delay.

34'

VAR penalty check! The match officials are looking at a tackle from Thomas on Sandro. There didn't look to be much contact in the box, but we'll wait and see what the decision is.

33'

Having picked Costa, Felix and Morata all in the same team surely Simeone has to do more to get them involved in this match. Morata is the only one who has shown any life.

31'

We were told to expect a different kind of Atletico Madrid team this season. This was an attacking team selection from Simeone, but this has been archetypal football from Atleti so far.

30'

That's three bookings Morata has earned for the opposition. Part of the reason for that is that he has been the only Atletico Madrid player willing to pick up the ball and drive it forward.

29'

There's ANOTHER foul on Morata and ANOTHER yellow card, this time for Moyano.

This is only the third game Real Valladolid have played at home so far this season. Their home stadium was being redeveloped so they started their league campaign with five away matches.

27'

Morata himself now enters the book for an arm into the face of Plano.

It must be said, this hasn't been a classic so far. It feels like both teams are just easing their way into the match. Real Valladolid are being very cautious. They are set up not to concede.

25'

23'

Atletico Madrid have only conceded four goals in seven games this season, but they are still struggling for goals at the other end of the pitch. For how much longer can they keep grinding results out?

22'

There have been reports this week that Costa could leave Atletico Madrid in the January window. Indeed, a number of clubs in the Gulf are reportedly looking at the Spanish striker.

21'

Costa was very poor at holding the ball up and bringing others into the game against Real Madrid last weekend and it's been more of the same from the Spanish international today.

20'

19'

Of course, after this game it's the international break so Simeone will be keen to end this stint of the season on a positive note. A win will carry Atletico Madrid into second place in the table.

18'

Plano comes flying forward up the right side and gets the cross into the middle. Atletico Madrid deal with it with ease, but that shows just how Real Valladolid can harm them.

17'

Atletico Madrid have seen the majority of the ball in the opening 15 minutes or so, but they aren't showing much urgency and intensity in trying to break down the opposition defence.
