ALMERIA: Samuel Omorodion’s brace powered Alaves to a crushing 3-0 victory over rock-bottom Almeria in Friday’s La Liga fixture at Power Horse Stadium here.
Alaves got off to a commanding start, courtesy of Omorodion, against home side Almeria, who are yet to taste triumph in the ongoing La Liga 2023/24.
The 20-year-old centre-forward left behind Almeria’s defence and tickled the ball past charging goalkeeper LuÃs Maximiano to open the scoring for Alaves just after 10 minutes.
Later, just eight minutes into the second half. Omorodion was violently brought down in the box by the goalkeeper, paving the way for Luis Rioja to convert the penalty to make it 2-0.
