Real Madrid equalled Barcelona's Spanish record of 39 games unbeaten in all competitions with a comfortable 5-0 LaLiga victory over Granada at the Bernabeu.

Los Blancos had ended Barcelona's record-breaking run last season with a 2-1 win at the Nou Camp and have not been beaten since going down 2-0 to Wolfsburg in the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final last April.

Isco hit a brace, with Karim Benzema, Cristiano Ronaldo and Casemiro also on the scoresheet against their struggling rivals as Madrid moved six points clear at the top of the table.

Real coach Zinedine Zidane said: “It's important for us to win games, but the manner in which we do it is significant too. People are enjoying themselves and the most important thing is that we're doing things well and taking it seriously. If you can do that, the fans have a good time and we do as well.

“What I'd like to underline yet again, is the discipline from the first minute until the last, how we showed respect for our opponents and played with real intensity. When we lost the ball we pressured really well, and of course when you score early on it makes things easier.

“Winning is the most important thing for me and for the players as well. It's crucial that in the build up to the game everyone does all they can and are 100% committed. With the players we've got here, if we do that we can do great things and win a lot of games."
