Real Madrid moved to within one win of the La Liga title after their 2-1 win against Granada.

France defender Ferland Mendy opened the scoring with a ferocious finish from a tight angle before countryman Karim Benzema doubled the lead.

Zinedine Zidane's side are four points clear of nearest rivals Barcelona with two games remaining.

Given Real's superior head-to-head record over Barca, Real require two points from their final two games, at home to fifth-placed Villarreal on Friday and at relegation-threatened Leganes on Sunday.
