Real Madrid did enough to beat lowly Granada 2-0 in La Liga on Saturday in an underwhelming encounter at the Bernabéu. The win takes Real to the top of La Liga on 38 points, ahead of Girona on goal difference.
Granada, who are second from bottom on seven points with one win in 15 games, posed no threat to a Real who showed no sign of weakness despite missing several regular starters through injury. The dominant hosts had 71% of the possession, while Granada did not manage a single attempt on goal.
