Ferdinand. His serious mistake was decisive in the course of the game: Francho shot and the captain lost the ball. He saved with his leg a great chance for Azón in the previous play of the 0-2, scored precisely by the youth squad.
Water well. It was one of the novelties in the eleven, Rubi later claiming the speed for that election. He did not have his best day, without joining the attack as usual.
Of the sickle. As a midfielder he performs much better, although as expected he acted as a right central defender, a position in which he will have to repeat after Martos’ injury while waiting for the red and white technical secretariat to make some incorporation.
Tuesdays. He returned to the eleven a month later with the opportunity to earn a place for the final stretch of the course with the injuries to Chumi and Carriço. However, he could not have had more bad luck when he was injured in the early stages of the second half after suffering a spectacular blow to the knee in an action with Narváez. He was removed on a stretcher and in the absence of medical tests, he does not look good at all.
Akieme. He could not be able to raise the band as he likes with the presence of Narváez, who made him suffer more with a manifest superiority on more than one occasion.
Puigmal. The novel scheme forced him to start from the right side, returning to the center with Ramazani’s entry. He did not come into play as much as on the last day and Almería suffered.
Eguars. Rubi has found a replacement of guarantees for de La Hoz, a piece that was missing during the first half of the championship. He was especially motivated in his return at La Romareda, close to the ball at all times and even testing Cristian Álvarez, such as the long shot that he starred in the stoppage of the first half.
Samu. From more to less, one of the best news for the team from Almería was that being warned they did not see the yellow card, bordering it due to their impetus when protesting.
gate. Guadianesco, today had less flow in the first act, trying more in the second: before being substituted he tried to give more fluidity to the Indalic game by going down and occupying interior corridors. Before the break he sent a ball to the post.
Sousa. It was the great novelty in the Almeria attack. He was more like a second striker, but also falling into space when Sadiq went down to receive. Two minutes later he hit the crossbar. With the absence of Ramazani, he assumed stripes in the penalty shot in the 8th minute, aborted by Cristian Álvarez with his left leg. The refusal of the maximum penalty fell to him, but he ran out of time. He left in the first carousel of changes due to muscular discomfort, as Rubi explained later in the press room.
Sadiq. López and Francés tied the Nigerian well, who had two goals disallowed. He returned to provoke another penalty, although he did not finish associating with Sousa. He ended his streak of four consecutive games seeing the rival goal.
Babec. Fourth outfield player with the most minutes on the rojiblanco squad, he stayed on the bench. He entered the second part and did not gel a good performance. In the 2-0 play he clears badly with his head and then the ball bounces off his leg. To make matters worse, the only healthy central defender in the squad ended up with back pain.
Ramazani. He is without the spark that he showed at the start of the championship and his team. He has the potential for so much more.
Curro Sanchez. After some initial failure, he sought to throw Almería on his back. He tried his luck with a couple of long shots and teamed up with Sadiq, with filtered passes like the one he put in in the 76th minute after the Nigerian assisted him previously with his chest. Another in 86′.
Ribbon. He had 25 minutes and showed little.
Villar. He tried starting from the left wing and also going inside. He tried his luck in the 88th minute, but Cristian Álvarez aborted the shot. Little can be reproached in terms of his attitude.
Ruby. He surprised with a 1-4-4-2 starting with Sousa and Sadiq for the first time this season. In addition to the Portuguese, Pozo, Martos and De la Hoz were also new. Before the hour of play he went to 1-4-2-3-1, retiring Sousa and bringing on Ramazani. Then he sought more control with Curro Sánchez and bite with Lazo and Villar. He is hoping that they will bring him some reinforcement for the defense.
