Almería presents champion works

To date, Almería he had never achieved 28 points out of 39 possible. Nor did he average two goals per game after thirteen days. Nor was there won up to nine times after playing thirteen rounds. The figures are not by chance, but the result of the Almería that Rubi has built, settled in the leadership (six times leaders this day, more than in the previous 32 years of the club’s history), commanding the table of goals in favor and only one for behind Burgos, Fuenlabrada and Zaragoza, who have yet to play this weekend (Julián Calero’s men play in Tenerife on Monday.
