Summary and goals of Real Sociedad – Valencia (1-1)

The txuri-urdin team made a good start to the game and had the first scoring chance after 40 seconds, but goalkeeper Mamardashvili cleared Illarramendi’s shot. La Real felt comfortable and went ahead on the scoreboard in the 10th minute; Thierry Correia slipped when taking the ball out, Illarramendi put the ball into the area, and Guillamón scored an own goal (1-0).

However, in the 14th minute, the local team was left with one less player for the expulsion of Aritz Elustondo. The referee initially showed him the yellow card, but from the VAR the referee was urged to see the monitor, after which he showed Aritz the red card directly.

With one less, the Real tried to fortify Remiro’s area, but after a ball from Gayà to the front, Guillamón and Lino combined and he finished low making the stretch of the realistic goalkeeper useless (1-1).

With a Reale Arena on fire against the referee, Real was able to get back in front after a good play by Carlos Fernández, who entered the area and gave back to Brais, who finished off placed, Mamardashvili deflected the ball and Zubeldia, coming from behind, he sent his shot to the sky of Donostia.

Gabriel Paulista was injured after half an hour, Cenk having to come on to accompany a Cömert that was crucial because shortly before the break, with Mamardashvili outmatched, he took a Sorloth header under the goal.

At the break Imanol Alguacil maneuvered to try to minimize the impact of numerical inferiority and put Gorosabel, Pacheco and Magunazelaia on the field for Illarramendi, Brais and Carlos Fernández to try to give more consistency to his team, which began to play with two lines of four men, with Sorloth as the only reference above.

Precisely the Norwegian had a very clear chance in the 50th minute after a magnificent combination between Merino and Magunazelaia that ended with the youth squad giving the ball back to Sorloth, who crashed his shot into the crosshead. Valencia’s response was immediate because after a free kick near the edge of the box, Gattuso’s men surprised by serving quickly and Marcos André shot low at a post by a Remiro who could only follow the ball with his eyes.

After this exchange of chances, the match entered a phase of clear territorial dominance by a Valencia team that found it very difficult to overcome the ‘txuri urdin’ resistance. And so the minutes passed without Gattuso’s men managing to prevail over a Real team that knew how to suffer in order not to add their third consecutive defeat in LaLiga.
