体坛英语资讯：Analysis: Four things we learned in Spains Matchday 10

MADRID, Oct. 28 -- Matchday ten in the Liga Santander only had nine games due to the cancellation of the game between FC Barcelona and Real Madrid, but despite missing the main course for the weekend, there was still plenty for football fans to enjoy: here are some things we learned this weekend in Spain.

1. Granada make history

The cancellation of the Clasico allowed Granada to make history by going to the top of the Liga Santander league table for the first time since 1973 after their 1-0 win at home to Betis.

The win, which came thanks to Alvaro Vadillo's 61st-minute goal, leaves Granada with 20 points - one more than Barca - and the fact the side from the south of Spain have played one more game than the league champions should take nothing from the achievement of the team that was only promoted last season.

Granada now have as many points after just 10 games as they managed to accumulate in all 38 games of their 2016-17 relegation season and even if they don't win the league, a start like this means it would need a disaster for this season to end like that one.

2. Credit to Oblak

Atletico Madrid goalkeeper Jan Oblak has been so good for so long that his excellence gets taken for granted, but he showed just how important he is in Atletico's 2-0 win at home to Athletic Club Bilbao on Saturday.

While the post-game headlines focused on the goals scored by Saul and Alvaro Morata, as well as Angel Correa's livewire display in providing two assists, the fact is that without two fantastic saves from Oblak when the score was still 0-0, the game could have had a very different result.
