Real Madrid dominate in La Liga against Almeria

Real Madrid opened their La Liga title fight with a hard-battled triumph as they came from one goal down to beat Almeria. Previous Manchester United striker Largie Ramazani first dodged past Real Madrid to give Almeria a shocking lead after only six minutes. Thereafter, home goalkeeper Fernando Martinez made a progression of saves to disappoint Real before Lucas Vazquez evened out.

David Alaba struck the victor from a free-kick with his most memorable touch after coming off the bench mid-match. Impeded by Fernando on a few events, Real thought they had evened out not long before the break, however, Vazquez's very convincing taken volley was chalked off for offside. Vazquez got his score, in any case, in the 61st minute with help from Vinicius Jr. Almeria got the opportunity to adjust three minutes into added time when Curro Sanchez's free-kick wounded up in the path of Rodrigo Ely, however, the Brazilian’s attempt went directly at Courtois.
