Real Madrid coach Ancelotti praises Casillas after Copa win

Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti praised Iker Casillas' performance after their Copa win at Espanyol.

Casillas made several excellent saves to earn Real a 1-0 lead ahead of the second-leg in Madrid.

Ancelotti said: "He's doing very well and deserves the record because of his professionalism. He helps the team a lot. He has played very well in every match. We have a lot of league and cup matches to play and the two goalkeepers are playing more or less the same number of matches. Iker is a starting goalkeeper, as is Diego López."
