Casemiro sends Real five points clear

Casemiro was Real Madrid's unlikely hero as he hit the winner to open up a five-point lead on Barcelona at the top of La Liga with a 2-1 win at Athletic Bilbao on Saturday.
Karim Benzema fired the visitors into a halftime lead from Cristiano Ronaldo's cross.
Aritz Aduriz briefly levelled for Athletic, but Ronaldo again was involved for the winner on 68 minutes as his flick-on was slotted home by the unmarked Casemiro for just his third goal of the

Barcelona can cut the gap back to two points when they face Valencia at the Camp Nou on Sunday.
