In Real Madrid injured Gareth Bale. In his place, Santiago Solari put Vinicius Junior. The young Brazilian became only the third football player born in 2000, who became the basis for the match of La Liga.
Before the match at the Bernabéu, the club from San Sebastian took the 15th place in the standings.
Sociedad lost in the previous three rounds of the La Liga Valladolid and going to the top 7 Getafe and Alaves.
The author of the first goal from the penalty spot, Willian Jose, did not score 10 La Liga games.
A little more than 53 thousand spectators came to the home game “Blancos”. This is the fourth consecutive match in which Real Madrid collects less than 60 thousand people.
Because of the low attendance, the budget of Real Madrid in this match did not receive 2 million euros.
Before the New Year, the Sociedad coach was replaced - instead of Asier Garitano, local Imanol Alguacil came.
Lukas Vazquez at the end of the first half, struck into the frame, and now the Real 21 hit - the same as the Barcelona, but more often on the bars and crossbars in Spain, no one fired.
After an hour of play, Vazquez received a second yellow card (the first in his entire career in the capital) and left Madrid with ten of them.
In the last four games Thibault Courtois took out as much as Kepa Arrisabalaga from Chelsea from November.
Real Madrid lost to Sociedad on Santiago Bernabéu for the first time in 10 matches. The last time the Basques won Madrid in 2004, and then Solari was still on the field.
In the last three games against the Basque club, Cristiano Ronaldo scored 6 goals and spent 2 assists. Without it, the Blancos sat down at 0:2.
Real suffered a sixth defeat in the La Liga. This is the same as last season, but there are still 20 matches in this one.
Now the Madrid club has 30 points after 18 rounds - so little in the XXI century it was in the 2005/06 season with Luxemburgo and López Caro. Then they took second place in Spain.
And Real scored only 26 goals, and this happened last time in La Liga 1993/94.
If you wake up tomorrow morning and Barcelona win Getafe, the Blancos lagging behind first place (and Barca) will be 11 points.
Above the Real in the table, not only sworn enemies from Catalonia and hated neighbors from Atletico, but also Sevilla, and even Alaves. Europa League is also a good tournament, Florentino.
