Real Madrid won the visit of Almeria (2-1), in the first round of the Spanish League. Samo Costa and Diego Sousa have been key players in the Andalusian side that this season have risen to the pinnacle of Spanish football.
And things looked good even for the fans who saw Almeria advance in the sixth minute, as Ramzani ran behind the defense’s defense and defeated compatriot Courtois. With so many changes regarding the eleven that won the European Super Cup, Carlo Ancelotti opted to put on the most famous face in the second half and ended up being rewarded.
In the 61st minute, in a move of insistence, Lucas Vazquez restored the equaliser. And at 75 minutes, David Alaba sealed the switch with an original genius kick from Ancelotti (see related news) that secured Merengue’s victory at the start of the competition.
