MALLORCA TODAY - Real Mallorca 1 : 2 Granada

Little of real note in the first half, other than Joao Victor for Mallorca and Siqueira for Granada having to be substituted because of injuries and Granada's El Arabi bringing out two saves from Aouate as he followed up one effort with another after a rebound. There wasn't a great deal more of note in the second period until calamity for Mallorca when Nsue fouled Torje, adjudged to be within the box (questionably so), and El Arabi put the visitors ahead from the spot. Then a second red card, this time for Brahimi for a second yellow. Both teams a man down, Granada coped better; Torje added a second with a quarter of an hour to go. Hemed, having gone close with a header five minutes before, did better with five minutes left, giving Mallorca some hope. But no. Following the good start to the season, first defeat away against Getafe and now losing at home to Granada represent a considerable comedown.
