Real Madrid have squeezed into a second half derby lead away at Atletico Madrid.
Both sides are looking to extend their unbeaten starts to the La Liga season on a high stakes night in the Spanish capital.
The first half was as tight and scrappy as expected with no real chances at either end with Los Blancos reduced to shots from distance before the break.
As the tempo stepped up in the second half, it was Real Madrid who seized their chance to gain an edge, via the unlikely figure of Eder Militao.
