If Barca fail to win away at Real Valladolid on Saturday, Madrid will clinch the title with two games to spare by beating Granada on Monday at Los Carmenes. "We still don't know what is going to happen," said Real coach Zinedine Zidane. After sacking their coach Asier Garitano last week following five consecutive defeats Alaves never looked likely to cause an upset. Benzema was able to continue but injured referee Gil Manzano was replaced by Rodriguez Carpallo, whose first big decision was to allow Madrid's second goal. Rodrygo and Vinicius Junior should have made it three when queueing up at the back post but two was enough.
