Real Madrid beat Granada CF 2-0 and remain on the heels of Spanish leaders Atletico.
2: 0! Real Madrid celebrated a home win against Granada CF in the 15th round of La Liga on Wednesday evening. Casemiro scored the 1-0 for the “royal team” in the second half. Karim Benzema made it 2-0 in the 93rd minute.
This was the Spanish defending champion’s tenth win of the season and leveled out at the top of the table with leader Atletico Madrid. The city rival of the “White Ballet” is leading due to the better goal difference and has played two fewer games.
FC Barcelona are eight points behind the two clubs from the capital. The Catalans have been in a sporting crisis for months, in a squad upheaval, have financial worries and threaten to lose their superstar Lionel Messi next summer. The Spanish championship should be decided this year between Atletico and Real.
