Real Madrid coach Rafa Benitez was pleased with Casemiro's performance for their derby draw at Atletico Madrid.
Benitez was pleased with Casemiro's combative performance.
“He has already played in other games. When there are aerial battles he helps us and he knows what to do with the ball. He is a very valuable player," said the Spaniard.
Casemiro said: "We had a good game. In the second half, we were slightly behind them but the game was under control, however then they got the equaliser. It is difficult to play here, it is a ground where the opponents put on pressure."
