Events
Match Events
- 0' KICK OFF: UD Almería gets underway.
- 5' A quiet spell here at Campo de Futbol de Vallecas. Rayo Vallecano de Madrid seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
- 10' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Sergio Akieme made 232 appearances and scored 9 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 13' That is a Yellow card for UD Almeria. Leo Baptistao will be fuming at that decision.
- 17' Ivan Balliu catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. Yellow card on 17.
- 22' It’s high time Iraola made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 25' Oscar Trejo catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. Yellow card on 25.
- 30' Catena has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
- 31' A meaty challenge results in booking for Sergio Akieme on 31.
- 36' UD Almería come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
- 41' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Sergio Camello suffering a number of foals already.
- 45' The referee shows UD Almeria player a Yellow card on 45.
- 50' The travelling UD Almería supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 54' The deadlock is broken! Rodrigo Ely gets on the scoresheet on 54 minutes.
- 57' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Catena.
- 62' Santiago Comesana needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 1 Red cards this season.
- 63' GOAL! Alvaro Garcia scores on 63. Assisted by Isi Palazon
- 63' Alvaro Garcia has so much to prove this time. He replaces Andres Martin on 63 minute.
- 68' It looks surprising Rayo Vallecano de Madrid does not make any changes. Ivan Balliu has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 69' El Bilal Toure gets the nod from UD Almeria. He replaces Luis Suarez and will look to change the dynamic.
- 72' The Rayo Vallecano de Madrid manager makes a substitution. Santiago Comesana departs to be replaced by Pathe Ciss.
- 77' Leo Baptistao makes way for Dyego Sousa at the 77 minute mark. A tactical switch from UD Almeria.
- 82' Rayo Vallecano de Madrid seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
- 85' Melero makes way for Lazaro at the 85 minute mark. A tactical switch from UD Almeria.
- 86' Rayo Vallecano de Madrid manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Salva Sanchez is hanging Oscar Valentin on the field on 86 minute.
