Real Madrid took care of business at the Santiago Bernabeu on Saturday, winning 4-2 against second-place Granada.

The result wasn’t always certain, but, in the end, Real Madrid put all doubts to bed by scoring in stoppage time to obtain a 4-2 victory over Granada. This battle between the first and second-place teams in La Liga wasn’t evenly matched through the first hour, as Real racked up a 3-0 lead, but defensive miscues made this a nail-biter in the final 15 minutes.

That said, Real Madrid prevailed, and they are still undefeated in La Liga. It’s a distinction they’ll likely hold going into El Clasico on Oct. 26 against Barcelona, who have been struggling due to injuries to key players – namely Lionel Messi.

Real need to perform at a higher level in the Champions League, but this has been a successful campaign for Zinedine Zidane thus far, given how well they’ve played in La Liga. Their 4-2 win over Granada may have been their finest performance yet, especially when looking at how lethal the offense looked throughout the 90 minutes.

Here were the top five moments from the thrilling victory, with a special focus on the wonderful goals that were scored by Los Blancos’ talented attacking players.
