With 31 points in 14 days, Rubi has formed the best Almería in history when it comes to the first third of the championship. The rojiblancos have made the Stadium of the Mediterranean Games a fortress, where they have only yielded two points, against Las Palmas (Jonathan Viera called ‘in extremis’); outside the Vega de Acá they are also pulverizing records, being the best visitor in the league, thanks to the four wins in the last five trips. Each figure that is analyzed is the best record in the history of the rojiblanca, case of the 27 goals in favor.
Besides the numbers, the sensations transmitted by Almería are practically unbeatable, with champion make. Rubi’s men have even carried out games in which they have not made so many merits to take the three points, like the one they played against Leganés. Last Tuesday they also prevailed against a direct rival in added time, something that has historically happened against them. Despite all the above, Rubi wants to keep her feet on the ground, aware that there are still two thirds of the championship left and that there is a lot of cloth to cut.
The Vilasarense coach asserted at the beginning of the season that a leadership in the first days was a coincidence, but as you pass in weeks it would already be causality. Even recently publicly asked to assess the numbers his team was achieving, aware that there was a lot of work behind to achieve historical figures. However, the rojiblanco coach continue to avoid the term ‘promotion’ in each of their appearances.
“Two other words are not going to enter the dressing room other than humility and work because there is so much left and because there are very good teams in this category”, said Rubi himself after winning at El Molinón, a victory with which the UDA scored nine points to the seventh, precisely Sporting. With 31 units, Almería takes four points from Éibar and five from Las Palmas, second and third placed, respectively.
