EXTRA-TIME LOOMING?
Dare I say it? We still have over 30 minutes left of normal time but extra-time seems inevitable. It has been a really poor game, very start-stop.
56'
SHOT DEFLECTED!
Carrasco skips his way into the penalty area but takes an age to make up his mind about what he's going to do next. Eventually he opts to shoot but the moment is gone and his effort is deflected behind for a corner.
53'
ATHLETIC CLUB CORNER
After patient build-up play, Athletic Club stretch the pitch and find De Marcos on the right. His cross is blocked, forcing a corner but the set-piece comes to little.

LANDMARK APPEARANCE FOR LODI
47'
ATHLETIC CLUB COUNTER!
Atleti win a corner immediately after the restart but Athletic Club deal with the danger and launch a rapid counter-attack. Muniain is played into the box but he takes a touch too many and Vrsaliko races back to make the interception.

ATLETI SUB
Renan Lodi replaces Llorente, who must be injured as I can't imagine Simeone making this change otherwise.

HALF-TIME
It's goalless at the break in this Supercopa de Espana semi-final and chances have been at a premium.
It can only get better, surely.
44'
ATLETI CORNER!
Joao Felix, after winning the corner, is caught flat-footed as the delivery is whipped his direction and the ball evades everyone in the Athletic Club penalty area.
42'
TEASING CROSS!
Williams has been Athletic Club's most lively player and he whips in a dangerous cross to the far post. Gimenez reacts quickest, heading clear.

EASY SAVE!
A promising Atleti attack fizzes out. Carrasco gets the crowd going with an impressive run, driving his side forward. However, it all unravels when he releases the ball. It's worked backwards to Kondogbia whose tame shot is comfortable for Unai Simon.
36'
HEAVY TOUCH!
I Williams looks to push the ball past Gimenez at the by-line but his touch is too heavy and it's cleared into touch by Atleti defender Vrsaljko.
34'
NO FOUL!
Athletic Club forward Muniain goes to ground not once but twice inside the Atleti box but it's never a penalty and he doesn't have the nerve to even ask the referee.
This game has gone rather flat.
31'
CHEEKY!
Simeone appears to be waving an imaginary card as Llorente is clattered. The referee keeps his cards in his pocket.
28'
INTO ROW-Z!
Dani Garcia runs onto a pass on the edge of the penalty area and opts for the first-time shot, ballooning the ball miles over the bar. That was a decent opportunity for Athletic Club.

OFFSIDE!
Joao Felix is played through after sprinting in between Athletic Club's two centre-backs but again he's mistimed his run and the offside flag is raised.
24'
OUCH!
Llorente falls awkwardly while trying to keep Joao Felix's diagonal pass in play and this looks painful. He winces in pain but gathers himself to his feet and should be able to run it off.

AWKWARD FOR UNAI SIMON!
Carrasco is off balance but gets plenty of power behind his shot from distance and it's awkward for Athletic Club goalkeeper Unai Simon, who just about deals with it.
20'
DANGEROUS!
Koke bends in a delicious cross hoping to pick out Joao Felix at the far post but Yeray is in position to hook it behind for an Atleti corner.
