Granada 0-4 Real madrid:james scored two wonderful goals to give madrid the victory.



A wonder goal from James Rodriguez helped Real Madrid to
another impressive La Liga victory as they saw off Granada 4-0
on Saturday.
A brilliant start saw Cristiano Ronaldo give the European
champions the lead, slotting home after just two minutes, and
James added a second with a vicious volley 15 minutes before
the break.
Karim Benzema added a third shortly after half-time, coolly
poking his effort home following Ronaldo's flick.
Marcelo was denied by the crossbar four minutes later, before
James took advantage of a defensive mix-up to poke home a
fourth and double his tally as Carlo Ancelotti's side followed up
last weekend's Clasico triumph in style.
The result represents Real's 11th consecutive win in all
competitions, while condemning a toothless Granada to their
fifth defeat in six games.
The visitors, who named an unchanged side from the the
convincing win over Barcelona, did not take long to assert their
authority in Andalucia, with Ronaldo opening the scoring early
on.
Some good work down the right saw Daniel Carvajal dispossess
Dimitri Foulquier, which allowed Benzema to cut back to the
Portugal international inside the area and he marked the 700th
match of his career with his 22nd goal of the season.Granada
came into the game having mustered just one win in their last
eight matches and posed little threat to Ancelotti's men, who
continued to press.
A wonderful clipped ball from Isco allowed Benzema to force a
smart save from Roberto in the 23rd minute, before Carvajal
blazed his shot over the bar from six yards following Ronaldo's
brilliant backheeled pass.
But the lead was doubled just after the half hour, when a superb
sweeping move saw Benzema tee the ball up for James inside
the area and the Colombian smashed an unstoppable first-time
volley into the top corner.
Real's dominance continued in the second half, and they were
celebrating a third just nine minutes after the restart, Ronaldo
finding Benzema with another audacious backheel, allowing th
Frenchman to beat the offside trap and prod his effort past
Roberto.
Granada's goalkeeper was once again a spectator two minutes
later and had the crossbar to thank as Marcelo's 25-yard effort
was denied.
The home side continued to struggle, but went close to pulling a
goal back after 65 minutes.
Substitute Ruben Rochina fired over with an acrobatic volley,
before a whipped cross from Juan Carlos was headed over by
Abdoul Sissoko.
Fellow sub Javier Marquez should have done better six minutes
from time, but was denied by an onrushing Iker Casillas, before
Sergio Ramos hooked another effort off the line.
James wrapped up the win three minutes later by scrambling
home at the far post after Ronaldo failed to connect properly
with Arbeloa's cut-back, capping off a routine afternoon for
Ancelotti's charges.
