MADRID, Oct. 7 -- Real Madrid go into the international break as leaders of La Liga after a 4-2 win at home to Granada on Saturday in Spain's Matchday 8.
Zinedine Zidane's side were able to put their midweek Champions League disappointment against Club Brugge behind them against a side who traveled to Madrid second in the table.
Karim Benzema's second minute opener put Madrid on track after a pass from Gareth Bale, and Eden Hazard's first goal for the club on the brink of half-time made it 2-0.
When Luka Modric added a third for the home side in the 61st minute it looked to be game over, but an error from goalkeeper Alphonse Areola on his full debut gave Granada a lifeline from the penalty spot which Darwin Machis duly converted.
When Domingos de Sousa added a second for the visitors in the 77th minute there were nerves around the Santiago Bernabeu stadium until James Rodriguez assured the home side of the win with a 92nd minute goal.
FC Barcelona continued their improved form with a 4-0 win at home to Sevilla, with goals from Luis Suarez, Arturo Vidal, Ousmane Dembele and Lionel Messi in a game where summer signing Antoine Griezmann didn't play a single minute.
Suarez, Vidal and Dembele put Barca 3-0 up by the break with three goals in eight minutes, and Messi added a fourth with a 78th minute free-kick on a night which ended on a sour note as Dembele and youngster Ronald Araujo were both sent off in the final few minutes.
