C Ronaldo Scored Own Goal To Gift Granada Victory Against Madrid by Nobody: 8:13am On Feb 03, 2013 |
[color=#000099][/color] Ronaldo sensationally scored in his own net as Real Madrid slumped to a shock 1-0 defeat away to Granada on Saturday night. In trying to head clear a corner from Nolito, the Portugal international inadvertently deflected the ball past a stunned Diego Lopez. The reigning Liga champions, led by a determined Ronaldo, tried desperately to rally, but substitute Karim Benzema squandered a gilt-edged opportunity to snatch a point in thedying seconds and the hosts held on to claim a win which lifted them out of the bottom three. Los Blancos had scored nine unanswered goals in their two previous Liga outings, against Valencia and Getafe, and another landslide victory was envisaged against a side languishing in the relegation zone and led by a new coach in Lucas Alcarez, who had had just two full days to prepare his side for the visit of the champions. However, Madrid looked sluggish right from the off, perhaps still feeling the effects of a draining Copa del Rey semi-final first-leg clash with Barcelona in midweek. Indeed, they did not fashion a chance worth of mention beforefalling behind in the most surprising of circumstances midway through the first half, Ronaldo heading a corner from Nolito past his own goalkeeper. Desperate to make amends for the first own goal of his professional career, the Portuguese twice tried his luck from distance with 30-yard free kicks, but on both occasions, he was unable to test Tono in the Granada goal. Yet those speculative long-range efforts were the best c penando |
