Granada leave it late against Real Sociedad

Granada score three times in the final 15 minutes to boost their chances of survival in La Liga, beating Real Sociedad 3-0.

Three goals in the final 15 minutes have handed Granada a 3-0 win over Real Sociedad in La Liga this evening, boosting their chances of avoiding relegation from Spain's top flight.

The visitors had the better of the chances in the first half, with Ruben Rochina and Roberto Fernandez both pressing forward, but they were unable to break the deadlock.

David Moyes's side started to pose more of a threat in the second half, with Carlos Martinez latching on to a cross to unleash a powerful effort from outside the box, but his finish was wide of the left upright.

Robert Ibanez set up the opening goal for the visitors just a couple of minutes later as he delivered a low cross for Youssef El Arabi, leaving his teammate to tap in from close range.

Ibanez doubled the advantage just five minutes later, turning on the edge of the box before rifling the ball towards goal, with a deflection leaving the keeper stranded.

Alberto de la Bella tried to give the home side some late hope, crossing the ball for Fernandez, but he was unable to get himself into position to get a shot away.

The visitors put the win beyond doubt with just moments to spare, though, as Rochina powered the ball towards goal from long range, just squeezing his strike under the crossbar.

The result leaves Granada just outside the relegation zone, two points clear of the drop with one fixture still to play, while Real Sociedad sit 12th.
