Real Madrid v Celta LIVE: Los Blancos host the Galicians looking to lock down second spot

Read all about how Madrid handled Celta at the Bernabeu.

Real Madrid cut Barcelona's lead at the top of La Liga with a routine 2-0 win over Celta.

A better leap from the number nine there would have seen another Madrid goal.

Even in the dying moments, Madrid are looking for more goals.

Camavinga was chasing him hard and the Spaniard didn't appreciate it.

A fair amount of stoppage time here.

No booking this time, but a warning for the offending Celta player.

The veteran is throwing himself after the ball in the 88th minute.

The hosts are just keeping the ball moving enough to keep Celta at bay now.

The replacement Brazilian is finding time and space down the left.

A little facial injury has drawn an awful lot of blood. He will probably be fine to continue, but the initial issue came from a clash of heads with Tchouameni in midfield.

The Brazilian is replaced by his countryman, while Luka Modric is also on in place of Dani Ceballos.

The final substitution of the evening from the visitors.

An excellent run and deft touch nearly take the veteran around the keeper but he sticks out an arm and flicks the ball away.

An ovation for the Spain winger as he is replaced.

The Frenchman misfires from the corner.

Madrid wait to take their corner.

A lovely move begins at their own corner flag and zips the length of the pitch before breaking down.

The yellow card a few minutes ago probably played into that decision.

Celta are forced back into their own box as the hosts relentlessly push forward.
