Almeria are not just a pushover side, as their league position would suggest.
The side, who are at the bottom of the Spanish table, stunned Real Madrid in a La Liga fixture when they took an early lead.
Belgian youngster Largie Ramazani gave his side the lead after just 38 seconds, consigning Madrid to a feeling they have not experienced in almost 10 years.
The goal was the earliest the Spanish giants conceded in all competitions since 2015. Ironically, the last time they conceded a goal as early, it was also within 38 seconds.

FootballBelgian winger Ramazani gave Almeria the perfect start, scoring within the first minute.
The 22-year-old, whose parents hail from Burundi, feigned shooting to the right of Kepa Arrizabalaga before sending the ball into the other side of the net.
He then produced a celebration to match the exhilaration of all Almeria fans.
Things went from bad to worse for Madrid when Almeria went 2-0 up before the halftime break.
Defender Edgar Gonzalez scored a beautiful strike as he connected with a volley from outside the box.
Sadly, Almeria couldn’t hang on to the two-goal lead from the first half, as Los Blancos fought back to win the game 3-2.
As a result, they are yet to pick up their first win of the season.
Real Madrid's Vinicius Junior has found himself again in the headlines as he appeared to have scored a goal with his arm against Almeria.
