Real Madrid did not miss the opportunity to take the lead in La Liga alone. He won 1-0 in Barcelona against Espanyol to take two points ahead of FC Barcelona.
Barça, held in check at Vigo on Saturday by Celta (2-2), will have a lot to do if it intends to prevent Real from regaining the title of champion. Against Espanyol, the team of Zinedine Zidane, which demonstrated its excellent form and great solidity, made the difference on a success of Casemiro (45th), served by Benzema with a subtle heel.
