Deportivo La Coruña Vs Real Madrid: Adebayor and Cristiano Hit The Post

This is beginning to get desparate for Real Madrid! Jose Mourinho has already sent on Emmanuel Adebayor and Angel Di Maria and the two substitutes have rejuvenated Madrid. Surprisingly Karim Benzema has stayed on the pitch, but even with Adebayor by his side, the French striker is nowhere to be seen.

And as Real Madrid press and press the goal is looking ever more likely as we enter the final stages of the match. Emmanuel Adebyor has struck the post with a first-time shot from Ozils magnificent pass. Cristiano has also hit the woodwork with a sublime strike from outside the area, while Aranzubia has saved his side with a stunning fingertip save from a Angel Di Maria piledriver.

Depor are hanging on for their lives right now and it will be a herculian effort from the home side if they manage to end the match on level terms. The pressure being handed out by Real Madrid is intense to say the least. The players know exactly what is at stake.

AND HOW DID BENZEMA MISS THAT? Unbelievable miss from Karim Benzema from no more than a metre out! If he had got a clean strike on the ball that would have been a goal, as it was the ball got tangled in his feet and Depor cleared.

5 minutes remain…can Real Madrid get that all-important winner?
