Real Madrid overcame Granada at the Santiago Bernabéu and extended their lead at the top of LaLiga. The Whites are now 6 points clear of Sevilla after a game that was decided thanks to a good second half performance from the madridistas, who found their well-deserved breakthrough in the 74th minute. Asensio struck a stunning left-footed effort from outside the box to clinch the win.
Real Madrid set the pace in the first half as Ancelotti’s men dominated possession, but it was the visitors who produced the first dangerous move with five minutes on the clock. Gonalons’ long pass in behind the defence found Puertas who shot from inside the area, but Courtois made a fine save. Our team hit back in the 13th minute when Isco controlled the ball on the byline and played in Asensio, who shot from close range, but Maximiano turned the ball behind for a corner.
