Andreas Pereira was the hero for beleaguered Granada in La Liga, as the star on loan from Manchester United scored to earn a 1-0 victory against Las Palmas on Monday.
The young Brazilian's flick and volley was perfectly executed, with the visitors consistently struggling to hit the target throughout the encounter.
The rare victory takes the hosts off the bottom of the table as they climb above Osasuna.
Here is Monday's result from Spain's top division:
