Highlights

93'

FULL TIME: Atletico Madrid 3-1 Rayo Vallecano

92'

Griezmann plays Torres clean through on goal, but he takes too long on the ball and Tono can make the save to prevent the striker from round him. That would have been his first Liga goal since his return!

91'

For so much of the first half it looked like this would be a stroll for Atletico Madrid, but credit to Rayo Vallecano. They have been second best but they at least made a contest of this.

90'

Three minutes of stoppage time to be played.

89'

Rayo Vallecano are still coming forward in search of a second goal, but this time Ze Castro's shot from distance sails well wide when he probably should have made the cross.

88'

Griezmann has quite easily been the best player on the pitch this evening. He's desperate for the match ball and could have secured it with that last chance, which he created for himself.

87'

Off the post! Griezmann twists and turns and runs 50 yards into the Rayo Vallecano half, sending a shot towards Tono's goal. But his shot comes smashing off the base of the woodwork!

86'

85'

There's still the feeling here that if Rayo Vallecano could find a goal in the next few minutes, they could make this a very difficult finale for Atletico Madrid. They still carry threat.

84'

Torres is dropping very deep to help out in defence, which is perhaps something you wouldn't normally see from the former Chelsea and Liverpool striker. Is that the Simeone effect?

83'

Trashorras has been very impressive for Rayo Vallecano tonight. Stats show that he has maintained a 76 percent pass compeletion rate, which against a team like Atletico is incredible.

82'

Rayo Vallecano sub: Gael Kakuta OFF, Alex Moreno ON.

81'

Rayo Vallecano want a penalty kick for a foul by Torres on Morcillo inside the penalty area, but the referee shakes his head and plays on. Manucho also fell to the floor in that sequence.

80'

Atletico Madrid sub: Arda Turan OFF, Raul Garcia ON.

79'

78'

What a chance for the away side to get themselves back in this game? Baena breaks in behind the Atletico Madrid defence but can't make any connection on his spinning shot. Chance!

77'

Right on cue it looks like Garcia is about to come on for Atletico Madrid. He's down on the touchline getting stripped, ready to come on for the final 10 minutes or so. Turan to come off?

76'

I'm slightly surprised that we haven't seen Garcia yet. Especially with Turan looking tired. They'll need him for the Copa Del Rey game against Barca, so why not put on Garcia?

75'

74'

Turan gets to the edge of the box and has Juanfran on the overlap, but he refuses to make the pace and slows down the pace of the game again. He's been guilty of that a few times tonight.
