SENT OFF! And Hermoso has also been shown a straight red card! That was quite something! Both teams down to 10 men in stoppage time and this one isn't over yet!

SENT OFF! There's a brawl on the pitch in stoppage time at Balaidos and it looks like Mallo has been shown a straight red card for his part in it! Drama at the end of this match!

89'
For all that Atletico Madrid seem intent on adding another forward to their squad before the transfer window closes, they already have an excellent option in Correa. He has proved that!
87'
86'
Moussa Dembele signed for Atletico Madrid on loan from Lyon in January, but he has since returned to his parent club. This means Simeone is a little lighter in terms of attacking options.
85'
Barcelona and Real Madrid look weak this season. Could it be that Sevilla put up the biggest fight against Atletico Madrid in the title race at the top of La Liga? Atleti have the target on their back.
84'
It should be noted that Denis was shown a yellow card a few moments ago.

83'
Simeone has attempted to move his Atletico Madrid team away from their conservative roots in recent seasons. Indeed, this is a different Atleti side to the one that won the title in 2014.
82'
There has been speculation that Atletico Madrid are in the market to add another striker to their squad to ease the burden on Suarez, but that move has yet to materialise.
81'
80'
Big chance for Aspas! That was a golden opportunity for Aspas to equalise for Celta Vigo, but he somehow managed to find the side netting when he should have beaten Oblak.
79'
However, Suarez is now into the twilight of his career and there is increasing doubt over his fitness (he missed a chunk of last season through injury). Can Atleti count on him this season?
78'
Of course, the surprising signing of Suarez from Barcelona last summer made all the difference for Atletico Madrid as the Uruguayan striker fired the club to the La Liga title.
77'
Beltran is also on for Celta Vigo to shore up the centre of the pitch.
