THE BIGGER PICTURE
That would have represented a decent return for Carlo Ancelotti’s side, as they were two goals down by half-time. A remarkable second-half fightback allowed them to take all three points, with Bellingham sparking that comeback when converting the club’s first successful penalty of the season.

Vinicius Junior restored parity in the 67th minute, paving the way for Real to lay siege on the Almeria goal in pursuit of a winner.
