Winning their match against Granada 3-0, La Liga champions seem to be back on track.
With Ronaldo’s 150th goal, Real Madrid won their first La Liga match since the beginning of the season against Granada.
It was Jose Mourinho’s worst start to a season ever, losing one match and drawing another.
Even though it seemed like Real Madrid were out of the race, they won the Spanish Super Cup, and things started to look a little different.
With arch rivals, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604, up on top and leading by five points, Real Madrid had to pick up the pace.
As the transfer window closed, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Spain-c3011, but also Europe.
While playing against Granada, the first goal of the match was scored by http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ronaldo-c31734 in the 26th minute of the game, and eight minutes into the second half, the Portuguese forward scored another.
With barely fifteen minutes left in full-time, Higuain tapped the ball in to make the final score 3-0 in favour of Los Blancos. 
Losing to Getafe in their last league match, Madrid needed this win and with a forward like Ronaldo, and with new midfielders, Essien and Modric, Madrid had no excuses.
Apart from just the attackers and midfielders, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Sergio-Ramos-c33096 in the centre of defence. 
Despite the win, Jose Mourinho was still not happy with his team's performance.
“I want more from my team,” said the Portuguese manager.
However, with a 3-0 win, it looks like Los Blancos are getting back on track, and it is still only the beginning of the season, so  they have enough time to catch up on Barcelona, provided they make good use of the time.
Apart from just having to worry about La Liga, Jose Mourinho’s side also have to face English Premier League Champions, Manchester City, in the opening match of the UEFA Champions League.
If Mourinho is not careful, he may end up losing the chance to get either, if not both trophies.
