Real Madrid bounced back from their midweek Copa del Rey defeat to Barcelona with a comeback 4-1
victory over 10-man Athletic Bilbao that kept them five points clear at the top of the Primera
Division.
In-form Athletic had threatened to add to Madrid's misery following their 2-1 home loss to Barca
in the first leg of their cup quarter-final tie when Fernando Llorente gave them an early lead.

Portugal exploded for six goals in a 6-2 rout in the home leg on Tuesday.
