After ten draws and 18 defeats in 28 matches in this year’s La Liga, the Almeria finally managed to get her her first win!
With the former coach of OFI, Pepe Melto debut on the bench, the “Rojiblancos” won 1-0 against Las Palmas away from home thanks to a goal by Leo Baptistao and they finally made a save, despite being in last place in the standings – with the distance from salvation being 13 points.
At the same time, Villarreal beat Valencia 1-0 at home, making it four consecutive wins in the league and thus rising to 9th place.
The “yellow submarine” had missed a penalty with Baena in the 39th minute, but managed to reach the winning goal with Cuenca in the 54th minute.
