That’s the outcome of Real Madrid‘s trip to the Nuevo Los Cármenes, where victory was secured courtesy of two superb first-half strikes, from Ferland Mendy and Karim Benzema. The league leagues managed to hold Granada at arm’s length when the hosts reduced the arrears as the visitors took a step closer to title glory.
