After a beginning to forget, in which Largie Ramazani made it a quick 1-0 for AlmeríaThe Real Madrid recovered in the second half and with goals from Lucas Vázquez and David Alaba ended up staying with 2-1 win in its premiership in La Liga 2022-2023.
The thing in Alabama was particularly remarkable: he entered the 74th minute and immediately took on a foul at the door of the area which he converted into a great goal to guide Ancelotti’s men to victory.
Before these two goals, Madrid always clashed with the wall imposed by the local goalkeeper, Fernando Martinezwho at 32 had a stunning First Division debut, ending the night with 13 saves.
In the winner they had their first official match as key signings, Antonio Rüdiger and Aurélien Tchouaméni, but neither performed well. The German was devastated in Ramadan’s goal, while the Frenchman made little impact and was substituted.
