Real Madrid 2-0 Getafe: Los Blancos go 12 points clear in LaLiga

Real Madrid went 12 points clear at the top of La Liga with just seven games left to play thanks to a 2-0 win over Getafe.

Substitute Gareth Bale was whistled by some supporters when he came on and there was a booking for Casemiro which rules him out of next week's game against Sevilla.

But that match, despite being top against second, will hardly be a title-decider with Carlo Ancelotti's side having opened up such a gap at the top.

Real Madrid (4-3-3): Courtois; Vazquez, Militao, Alaba (Nacho 86), Marcelo; Valverde, Casemiro (Ceballos 75), Camavinga; Rodrygo, Benzema (Bale 74), Vinicius Junior (Asensio 83).

Substitutes not used: Lunin, Pineiro; Carvajal, Kroos, Modric.

Goals: Casemiro 39, Vazquez 68.

Yellow cards: Casemiro 44, Valverde 45.

Manager: Carlo Ancelotti.

Getafe (5-3-2): Soria; Suarez, Cuenca (Cabaco 82), Djene, Mitrovic, Olivera; Alena (Rodriguez 46), Maksimovic (Yokuslu 86), Villar (Florentino Luis 74); Unal, Mayoral (Ramirez 46).

Substitutes not used: Yanez, Conde; Alvarez, Iglesias, Vitolo. 

Yellow cards: Olivera 76, Djene 79.

Manager: Quique Sanchez Flores. 

It was Casemiro who got his first goal of the season to break the deadlock with a diving header on to Vinicius' brilliant cross. 

The Brazilian looks back to his best just at the most important moment of the season. 

Casemiro scored six goals last season but this was his first of this campaign.

Lucas Vazquez passed the ball into the back of the net for the second goal of the game after the break after he was picked out by Rodrygo. 

That moment both Brazilian wingers had weighed in with assists.
