Real Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane praised Gareth Bale after Saturday's 0-0 draw with Atletico Madrid.
Bale did well again, and the Frenchman did acknowledge that he was impressed by the No.11.
"All of the players are with us and Gareth is doing very well," he said.
"Above all, he helps a lot in the defensive phase, and it shows that we're more comfortable when we all defend."
Sergio Ramos had already said that Madrid were annoyed to only leave with a point, which Zidane agreed with.
"I agree [with Ramos]," he said.
"We deserved much more but... What I have to do is to congratulate the players.
"We missed a little in attack, but we want to grow, and I have to congratulate my players."
