BARCELONA (Reuters) - A second-half Karim Benzema header gave a below-par Real Madrid a 1-0 victory over Granada, who squandered several good chances, in La Liga on Saturday.

The Frenchman, who appeared marginally offside, nodded home an Isco cross after 55 minutes against a well organised Granada side that attacked with pace.
