After the Saturday’s match against the minnow Granada, Real Madrid registered their lead over the archrivals Barcelona in La Liga. Madrid now opens with a six points lead by thrashing Granada 5-1 at their first visit to Santiago Bernabeu in the period of thirty-six years. With this win, Madrid will feel confident when they will meet Barcelona. In fact, this win gave a psychological advantage for Real prior to their match against Espanyol. The coach of Real, Mourinho said that they would try not to repeat the sloppy performance that they displayed in the King’s Cup match against Malaga, especially in the first half. Though they came back strongly and registered a 3-2 victory. However, it cannot be denied that the first forty-five minutes was a labored effort and they were fortunate to go 2-1 up during the break.
The first goal of the home side was the joint effort of Mesut Ozil and Christiano Ronaldo for setting up Karim Benzema. Though Granada was quick to reply with an efficient attack after 22 minutes, when Mikel Rico went unmarked while heading the corner. The defense of Madrid was again seen to be dozing and Granada could have scored another goal when Rico cut through the backline and took a shot, which was saved well by Casillas. During the 34th minute, Real was back into the game when a corner was netted by Sergio Ramos with a header.
In the beginning of the second half, Real played well and did not provided any chance to the opponent to settle the score. Within the first few minutes of the second half, Benzema and Higuain helped to take the score 4-1. The hopes of Granada were thrashed by Ronaldo within a minute after the fourth goal when he netted the fifth one.
In the last encounter of Real Madrid and Barcelona in the last month’s El Clasico, Madrid lost to Barca with the score of 1-3. In spite of that, the coach of Madrid Pep Guardiola still thinks that Madrid is the strongest team and has all the potential to win the competition.
This win is expected to prove to be the confidence booster for Madrid.
