Mark Casado, a player for Barcelona, spoke about his team's victory over Athletic Bilbao in the Spanish League, highlighting the importance of the win. He also praised the performances of his teammates Yamal and Pedri, and commented on the level of refereeing during the match.

Casado said: "The refereeing was very good, the referee is calm and approachable, and the players feel very comfortable dealing with him."

The Barcelona player continued his discussion about one of the refereeing incidents, saying: "In Pau Cubarsi's situation, I believe Juan Martinez Munuera would definitely have sent him off, but it was only a yellow card."

Casado praised his teammates Lamine Yamal and Pedri, saying: "What can I say about Lamine and Pedri? Everyone enjoys watching them from outside the field, and I enjoy them from within it."

He added: "Pedri delivered an excellent pass, followed by Lamine's remarkable finish."

The Barcelona player also emphasized the importance of the victory, saying: "Of course, this is a very important win, as they are one of the toughest teams we face during the season because they always play at one hundred percent."

He continued: "We might have lacked a bit of control during some periods of the match, but in the end, we succeeded in securing the three points."

Casado concluded his remarks by saying: "The team is happy with this victory, and the most important thing was securing the three points after Real Madrid accomplished their task yesterday."

He added, "We played with great seriousness, and that's exactly what we wanted."
