I hope I don`t jinx them, but Almeria, who are bottom of la Liga and yet to win a game, are 2-0 up in the Bernabeu at half time. Has to be at least on a par with Bayern 0 Raith Rovers 1 in the Alianz Arena.

Pedantic I know GG, but the Rovers game was in the Olympic Stadium
, Alianz. Arena came a long time after......👍
Still, an amazing result, just shows what could happen in a bigger league format

I jinxed them. ☹️
3-2 Real. A dodgy pen, a foul before their equaliser and the winner after 100 mins.
Real Rangers alive and well..... 😒

Don`t forget the dodgy as hell VAR call denying Almeria a 3rd goal.
Honking refereeing.

The ref in the West Ham game was also deplorable
It`s bloody tough being a legend

I missed that, Bandy, and I switched off after Real`s late winner as I was totally hacked off. Sure, Real had nearly all the possession, but little Almeria had their tactics spot on and deserved something from the game. A win would have had their fans reminiscing like yon Pars player who last scored the winning goal at Ibrox - cannae mind his name.... 😉

I`m sure they beat Barcelona in the league near the end of last season out of nowhere and ended up staying up by a point.

They are also owned by a Saudi sheikh so not sure about the Raith Rovers comparison🙂

Is he a relatively poor sheikh? Just a multi millionaire rather than a billionaire? 🤔

I`m not sure, I know they had Darwin Nunez and sold him to Benfica for about £25 million a few years ago.If they had a sell on clause they would have been quids in when Liverpool paid £85 million or whatever it was.
