Overhead effort! Getafe create an opportunity down the right side with Angel attempting an overhead kick, but that was never really going to test Courtois. Good invention, though.

PICTURE: Asensio has been quiet

48'
Getafe need to do more to create opportunities in this second period. They have been toothless so far this evening, barely even crossing the halfway line. Fortunate to be level.
47'
46'
No changes made by either manager at the half time break, but one thing that has changed is the conditions. The freezing rain is now coming down at the Estadio Alfredo di Stefano!
45'
The second half is under way! It's still 0-0 between Real Madrid and Getafe in this La Liga fixture!
45'
HALF TIME: Real Madrid 0-0 Getafe. Still waiting for the breakthrough at the Estadio Alfredo di Stefano, but Real Madrid have had more of the play and the better of the chances.
44'
Ramos is also out of contract at the end of the season although there is a lot more uncertainty over what his future holds. The defender has reportedly rejected a new offer from Real Madrid.
43'
42'
Modric has been in excellent form of late. The Croatian midfielder is out of contract at the end of the season although it’s widely believed he will sign a new contract to stay at Real Madrid beyond the summer.
41'
This time Marcelo is closed down and the tackle is made as Real Madrid come flying forward on the counter attack. The Brazilian veteran is seeing so much of the ball!
39'
Real Madrid only have 11 fit outfield players for this evening’s game against Getafe. The squad of the defending Spanish champions is certainly being tested to its full capacity at the moment.
38'
That was the best attacking move of the match from Real Madrid. They need to do more to test Soria in the Getafe goal. He has had very little to do so far. That has to change.
37'
MODRIC... tipped wide! Marcelo cuts the pass back to Modric, the Croatian takes a touch and then gets the powerful strike away, but Soria tips wide of the post! An awkward save!
36'
Marvin can be very pleased with how he has played this match so far. What is noteable is that his Real Madrid teammates are increasingly looking for him when they have the ball.
35'
34'
Real Madrid have played some nice stuff in the first half of this match, but theur final product has been lacking. That's where Zidane will want to see more from his players.
33'
Marcelo pulls it back! Modric threaded a wonderful pass through to Marcelo, the Brazilian cuts the ball back to Varane inside the area, but the Frenchman scuffs his shot wide.
32'
31'
While this has been a relatively entertaining match played at a good pace, both teams are struggling to create much in the final third. Benzema's header off the bar. That's about it.
30'
The funny thing about the defeat to Levante just over a week ago was that it came immediately after one of Real Madrid’s best performances of the season so far, when they blew away Alaves in a 4-1 victory.
