    Incredible drama!

    Granada 2-1 Barcelona

    Granada are edging closer to a memorable victory, one which could lift them just one place to 18th - but level with 14th-placed Sevilla on eight points.

    Defeat would leave Barcelona four points behind Real Madrid going into the international break.

  12. CLOSE!published at 78 mins

    Granada 2-1 Barcelona

    Almost!

    Centre-back Ronald Araujo nearly produces the moment of quality his side need, a lovely turn on the edge of the box creating space for the shot, which he fires just wide of the target.

    Time is beginning to run out for Barcelona if they are going to turn this around and narrow the gap to Real Madrid.

    They are controlling possession and territory but Granada continue to frustrate.

  16. GREAT SAVE!published at 69 mins

    Granada 2-1 Barcelona

    That's a superb save by Andre Ferreira!

    Ronald Araujo heads a free-kick back across goal and into the path of Ferran Torres, but somehow Ferreira manages to get across his line and get two hands on the ball.

    Granada 2-1 Barcelona

    Joao Felix goes down on the edge of the penalty area, which earns Bryan Zaragoza a yellow card.

    The Granada fans are not happy.

    Let's see the replay... That's why! A complete dive from Felix, who is not touched. This will be controversial if Barcelona score from here...
