Almeria 1-1 Real Mallorca

Real Mallorca slipped to fifth place in La Liga following a 1-1 draw away at Almeria. But despite this, they may be considering themselves lucky.

It took just four minutes for Almeria to take the lead. A Kalu Uche header gave the home side the advantage. And if it wasn't for the form of Dudu Aouate, the advantage may have been much greater because the Islanders were lackluster at best.

Mallorca's tame efforts were easily dealt with by Diego Alves, the Almeria goalkeeper, in what few chances they had. And the home side had plenty of chances to put the game beyond Mallorca too. Piatti headed just wide when he really should've scored, and Cisma hit the bar.

Almeria were to pay the price for failing to take their chances when Ayoze's long cross found the head of substitute Pierre Webo two minutes from time. Relief for the Islanders. Ultimate disappointment for Almeria.

Sevilla, who are now level on points with Mallorca, go into fourth due to a superior head-to-head record.
