In a rollercoaster ride of a game on Monday night that featured three converted penalties, all from dubious decisions, and a 91st-minute winner from 18-year-old Moroccan striker Hicham Khaloua, Almeria emerged 4-3 victors over Real Sociedad.

The result saw the Andalusian club rise out of the relegation zone, while Sociedad took a knock to their hopes of European competition next season.
