Match Events
- 0' Packed stands, loud atmosphere — UD Almería and Real Sociedad de Fútbol get this one started.
- 5' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
- 10' 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 Rodrigo Ely suffering a number of foals already.
- 15' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 20' Both keepers have barely been tested. UD Almería and Real Sociedad de Fútbol are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
- 25' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
- 30' The travelling Real Sociedad de Fútbol supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 35' The energy levels are beginning to show. Imanol Alguacil might look to freshen things up shortly.
- 40' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering UD Almería that had 160 games and scored 187 goals.

- 47' The Spain David Silva breaks the deadlock on 47 minutes. 0-1!
- 52' GOAL! Alexander Sorloth fires home to make it 0-2!

- 75' Time for substitution for UD Almeria. Houboulang Mendes is replaced by Alejandro Pozo.
- 80' UD Almería 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.
