Real Madrid began their LaLiga Santander season with a scare yesterday when Largie Ramazani put Almeria ahead early on against the giants.

But it was two defenders, first Lucas Vazquez and then David Alaba, who put the game to bed.

Their part in the comeback was the reason why fans voted the two defenders as the best players of the match on MARCA.com.

Alaba and Lucas, the most outstanding

The MARCA & Partners Outstanding Player poll continues to surprise. On this occasion the two goalscorers beat other stars like Vinicius Jr, Karim Benzema and Largie Ramazani.
