Who Needs David De Gea? Kiko Casilla Almost Single-Handedly Wins Game for Real

Rumours continue to fly about Real Madrid's pursuit of Manchester United goalkeeper David De Gea, according to spanish newspaper AS (h/t the Independent's Jack de Menezes). But current incumbent Kiko Casilla has done his own claim for the No. 1 shirt no harm with two fine saves before scoring and saving the decisive penalties in Real's win over AC Milan.

First up, the 28-year-old signed from Espanyol this summer leapt across his goal to palm over a stinging Carlos Bacca volley.
