Casimiro is the savior of Real

Real Madrid just tried throughout the match, but could not bring speed to the game. The impression of fatigue became clear. However, they have picked up the expected victory. Zinedine Zidane's side are two points behind arch-rivals Barcelona in the title fight after losing to Espanyol.

 Casimiro became the hero of the victory after returning to the team after overcoming the ban of one match. Real won the La Liga match on Sunday night with the only goal of the Brazilian defensive midfielder.

After an unexpected break from the coronavirus, Real returned to the 'new look' and won all five of their matches in the league. They have 21 wins in 32 matches and 61 points in eight draws. Barcelona's 69 points in two.

The pressure of a match-packed schedule every three days seems to have begun to fall. That may be what was revealed in the body language of Eden Azar-Vinicius Jr. Despite dominating the ball, Real had no known edge in the game.

Espanyol, the bottom team in the points table, played rather well. Although there is a big difference between the two teams in the league table, it was not reflected in the field game.

Real took a little time to adjust themselves in the beginning and got the first significant opportunity in the tenth minute of the match. Sergio Ramos sent the ball over the crossbar to the head from a very close range. In the 20th minute, Real goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois returned a punched free-kick by Mark Rocker from the right side.
