Trying to watch two matches simultaneously on adjacent TV screens is quite a challenge.
Bar Alegria was full to bursting, mainly with Malaga fans. I didn't spot any supporters of Germany nor of Ivory Coast nor of Almeria.

Malaga CF v UD Almeria
These two teams were playing for the final promotion spot from Liga 2 to Liga 1.
It had finished 0 - 0 in the first leg at La Rosaleda, Malaga's home ground.
Last night in Almeria it was still 0 - 0 after 90 minutes.
Then in extra time Malaga scored twice and Almeria once.

Although they had been reduced to 10 men following a red card, Almeria still dominated through the 10 minutes added time.
Finally the whistle went, the game was over and Malaga were promoted back into the top division after a gap of nine years.
Germany v Ivory Coast
Germany struggled against a lively, energetic and tenacious Ivory Coast in this World Cup group match.
Germany even fell behind in the first half, before equalising in the second half through Stuttgart striker Deniz Undav.
Indeed it was Undav who scored the winner in time added on.

So, Malaga went up and Germany scored two, to lead their World Cup group on six points.
