Real Madrid move top of La Liga with 4-0 win over the Andalusian side.
James, Cristiano and Benzema displayed five-star performance in Real's win.
Real Madrid crashed Granada 4-0 to bag 11th consecutive win in all competitions. The win kept them top of table at least for 24 hours if Sevilla wins their match.
Real had a bright start with Carvajal reclaiming a lost ball from his foot to pass to Benzema. The Frenchman assisted to Ronaldo who struck a beautiful shot into the bottom corner in the second minute.
The game was completely in Real's control then. Just before half time, James scored a wonderful dipping shot into the net. Real Madrid got a throw-in which James threw to Benzema. The striker lobbed into the Colombian who dipped the shot giving Roberto no chance to get a hand on it.
Real Madrid got the third off Benzema's legs. The Frenchman passed to Ronaldo who passed it to the former with a neat backheel. The Frenchman completed a neat finish to make it 3-0.
The last goal came when Benzema passed the ball to Arbeloa. The Spaniard passed to Ronaldo who could have scored a tap-in, but instead he could just manage a scramp into the ball which James scored 2 yards from goal.
The win kept them top of table after Barcelona slumped to a 1-0 defeat. If Sevilla wins tonight, Madrid will go down one point to Sevilla. But if Sevilla drew level or lose their game, Real will top league after week 10.
