It had looked for all the world that Almeria were going to go two up as we entered the final 15 minutes, but you just cannot write Real Madrid off and after one of the deadly counter attacks, Esteban Granero has pulled Mourinhos side on level terms. Cristiano fed the ball into Karim Benzema, who showed good vision to feed the ball out to Granero who smashed the ball into the top corner at Diego Alves’ near post.
Almeria Vs Real Madrid: Granero Pulls Real Madrid Level
You could see from the reaction of the Madrid bench just how much that goal meant, because Real Madrid were really suffering. Pablo Piatti has given Alvaro Arbeloa a torrid time down the right, and with Bernadello and Mbami still controlling proceedings in the middle and Ulloa an everpresent threat in attack, the equaliser was a massive blow to the home side.
We enter the final ten minutes with the match on a knife-edge. Can Real Madrid find that all-important winner?
