00:00You
00:03Are you join us on a day where the weather just may have an impact on a football match that has been much
00:11Anticipated it's dry at the moment, but the forecast is that it will be wet
00:17Perhaps very wet by the time the game is underway
00:21And certainly by the time of the second half the crowd though are here and they are in good form
00:25There's a right old cacophony going on. The atmosphere is terrific and kickoff is moments away
00:35This must be amongst the favorite arenas of supporters all over the world. It really does have a very special feel
00:45Well, if you did just miss it we are up and running already
00:49To the left it goes
01:00Delivery no joy. No, that was a slick move and there were several options in the box to to pick out
01:19Oh
01:27Middlesbrough made a good start to their campaign a win on day one up and running
01:34Gets it up field
01:37Well, he acknowledges that he should have come up with something better that ah that just required a bit more oomph to reach its target
01:44And it's cristiano ronaldo that's been intercepted and that will come to nothing
01:54Well, there's a lot of movement out wide now
01:56Yeah, you can certainly see that well
01:59I think it's a move to open the game up more whether out wide or just getting a runner through the middle now
02:06Cuts it out
02:09Messy
02:11We get that clear
02:14That's needed to be better than that and he knows it
02:25Keeper sends it forward
02:31Right through the middle
02:33Chance
02:35To run lovely take but that is where it stopped that was created because of good lively movement which pretty much dictated the pass
02:52Hoist it forward
02:56Benzema and here's the chance to counter
02:59And it's played forward
03:04Cristiano ronaldo he's made sure that that won't get through
03:12Still goalless at the moment
03:16Good idea just poorly executed
03:19Jorginho
03:27Jorginho
03:28And it's cristiano ronaldo and it's got through he's left his man
03:35It's out for a goal kick
03:37Gets the better of his man
03:52Turns and goes back
03:56Lobs it in gently
03:59It's a goal kick
04:00Cristiano ronaldo oh, he's broken through
04:20Forward it goes
04:22Finds himself eased off the ball
04:31Could move up a gear here
04:37It's gone for a throwing
04:46Cristiano and the finish
04:48Goal
04:54And as soon as they made that error in midfield they didn't have time to react before the ball hit the net very much a lesson learned
05:00Thank
05:14So
05:16That's
05:22So
05:24So
05:28Deadlock broken, it's 1-0
05:41Well just listen to the reaction
05:43I think you can hear the approval from the support
05:45All around the stadium
05:46Gets his foot in there
05:49Trying to get there
05:51Across the field it goes
05:54Tries to get it forward quickly
05:59And now the breakaway
06:00Benzema plays it out to the flank
06:04He's had that put on a plate
06:08Benzema opts to play it back
06:15Hoists it forward
06:16And it's Messi
06:24Out to the right
06:30Florenzi
06:32He's had a goal
06:37And it's played forward
06:39Chance to break
06:41Forward it goes
06:49Corner there
06:50And that has been cleared
07:01Got a shot away
07:12Well he doesn't need a second invitation
07:15Even from that range
07:17And it's Cristiano Ronaldo
07:20Cristiano Ronaldo
07:25Benzema
07:26The message is clear
07:32None shall pass
07:33Played out to the right
07:36Witten
07:40And the assistant referee
07:42Rightly gives him offside
07:44And that is going to be the final action of the first half
07:57There we are
07:58Off they go for half time
07:59The great move did indeed come in the first half
08:02But there has only been that one goal
08:05It is very very tight
08:06Well you obviously have to give credit to the front men for the half time lead
08:11But I think the midfield can really pat themselves on the back too
08:14They worked tirelessly for me
08:15Leading a cagey game here
08:18It's had its moments
08:19And it's 1-0 at the break
08:21Well the action has already resumed here
08:25A solitary goal
08:28That has been the crucial difference
08:30Hoists it high
08:34And now they can launch a counter
08:37Messi
08:46Well try as they might
08:50They just couldn't get into an attacking area
08:52Oh good take in a good area
08:55Benzema
09:02Really got caught in a trap there
09:04And he just couldn't get out
09:06Good challenge
09:16He just stood firm
09:17Floats one over
09:19Defending of the desperate variety
09:23Good offside that time
09:26Keepers got good distance on that
09:35And that's the end of that
09:44It all started well enough
09:45Looks to thread it through
09:49And it's Graben
09:58Ball through needs to be good here
10:00And through to the goalkeeper
10:03Cristiano Ronaldo
10:06Keepers sends it forward
10:12Graben plays it forward
10:25Graben plays it forward
10:25There's the ball in
10:27Middlesbrough have it back
10:31And they can go again
10:32He's had a shot
10:36Now it's Messi
10:42Vince one in
10:43And he's there to clear it
10:46Looking for a corner
10:48Fence has got rid of that
10:57Going for goal
11:01Oh taken with style
11:04Two up
11:07And threatening to pull clear
11:09No space
11:11No problem
11:13You just cannot stop him
11:15Well I think that defence there
11:16Thought they were in good position
11:18And they had him where they wanted
11:19Yet somehow
11:20He's worked the scoring position
11:21When it didn't see him on
11:22It's really crafty business that
11:24Things starting to look
11:28Very comfortable
11:29Well with this kind of authority
11:31Peter
11:32Why not push on
11:33And totally kill this off
11:34And it's Cristiano Ronaldo
11:42Hazzar
11:43Benzema
11:45Hazzar hits
11:46He can pounce on that
11:48And more
11:50And more
11:51And more
11:52And they are cruising away
11:56He was really quick to react
12:00To the initial save
12:01And he has his reward
12:03Oh that's great awareness
12:05Full marks to him
12:06As he was just that bit quicker
12:07Than everyone else
12:08On the follow up
12:09His second of the game
12:12And an eye now
12:13For the hat trick
12:14Three without reply
12:19This is becoming a stroll
12:21Well it's been an absolutely fabulous spell for them
12:24And they're starting to look unstoppable
12:26There could be more on the way
12:28There's going to be another change here
12:54I just think that's really good management
12:56Introducing one of his younger players
12:58When the pressure's totally off
13:00Just allowing him some valuable easy on field experience time
13:03Savage
13:04Takes the low option
13:05Dashing forward at pace
13:10He's got through
13:11He gets past his man
13:14Shot and goal
13:17Oh just likes a decent finish
13:21Okay it's come to nothing
13:22But it's a warning
13:23A further threat
13:24On the break
13:25Just about up to 75 minutes
13:38It's a loose ball
13:47Plays it out to the wing
13:48Neither side really getting hold of the ball
13:54Out to the right
13:57Time to deliver
14:04That's a good block
14:07But at the expense of a corner
14:08Massive leap
14:15But another time
14:16Oh it's diehard defence
14:21And the willingness to put his body on the line
14:23Very impressive
14:24Gets wrestled off the ball
14:28Tries to stroke it through
14:33Played into space out wide
14:35And a header
14:37And looking back at that
14:44That's how you play on the counter
14:46Quick and decisive
14:47And ruthless with the finish
14:49I thought it was a stunning stunning regular
14:51Thank you
14:52Thank you
15:25So is this the start of a comeback?
15:29Savic with a delicate ball.
15:33Promising move that.
15:34Good inroads into enemy territory, but no joy.
15:41Azar.
15:43Greenish looking to penetrate opposition lines.
15:48Cristiano Runa goes for goal!
15:51Goal!
15:54Oh, high-quality goal, lovely first touch, sumptuous second.
16:03He snaffles his third, and that earns him the match ball.
16:07That defence must be sick of the sight of him.
16:09He's been persistent and ruthless all game.
16:12He just hasn't stopped working.
16:13So now the difference is three.
16:20Well played, he saw that coming.
16:27Just five minutes remaining now.
16:29So now the first touch, Florenzi.
16:37Goal!
16:38Goal!
16:39Goal!
16:40Goal!
16:40Goal!
16:41Goal!
16:41Goal!
16:42Goal!
16:42Goal!
16:43Goal!
16:43Goal!
16:44Goal!
16:45Goal!
16:46Goal!
16:47Goal!
16:49Azar.
16:52Grealish.
16:54Driving on, he could shoot here.
16:58And that has been cleared.
17:01Regardless of the outcome, it is good to see someone running at the defence like that.
17:05Board shows there will be three extra minutes
17:11Let's look back
17:13He's taken out, that'll be a foul
17:15It is a fair distance from goal
17:20I'm not sure if he'll have a go
17:30Top save! That shot was travelling
17:32Great football, shot and save
17:37Vertonghen
17:44Savic
17:46So that's it, it is all over
17:53Great day for attacking football, the artists of time
