Real Madrid escaped in the leadership of La Liga. In a duel valid for day 32 of the contest, the meringues defeated Espanyol by the minimum count and took advantage of the 2-2 draw between Arturo Vidal’s Barcelona and Celta de Vigo to take advantage at the top. Those led by Zinedine Zidane are now exclusive leaders in Spanish football, with two units of advantage over the Catalans.
It was not easy for Madrid to make the difference on the scoreboard. A great first half from a solid Diego López prevented the Whites from celebrating before the 43 ′, when Karim Benzema assisted with cue to Casemiro, the scorer of the goal. A header by Sergio Ramos and a shot to place by Benzema could have been perfectly 0-1 had it not been for the goalkeeper, who, in any case, could not keep the zero in his goal.
