Real Madrid achieves hard-won victory at the Reale Arena. Ancelotti’s men saw Real Sociedad hit the woodwork three times to win thanks to two penalties converted by Vinicius and Mbappé.
Real Madrid has had many victims. It has Real Madrid. Victims who have a full infirmary. The one in which, in addition, there is a new member after Brahim’s muscle injuryHe occupied the right flank of the attack in the eleven, with Rodrygo on the bench waiting for an opportunity that would present itself sooner than expected.
With the oranges now in the box, Real Sociedad found themselves more comfortable at the Reale Arena. So much so that if the score ended in a draw, with 0-0 on the scoreboard, It was for the sticks. For the wood. By the post and the crossbar which repelled the best chances of the challenge until the break.
Three sticks… and two penalties
First it was Sucic; then Becker. Meanwhile, at Real Madrid, the most striking attack was to Mbappé that no matter how hard he looked for the goal, he couldn’t find it. At least, until the penalty.
Until the second they whistled Real Madrid coming back from the tunnel of the locker rooms. The Frenchman launched it and scored. He scored in the same way as Vinicius to make it 0-1. And yes also of eleven meters.
Before, another piece of wood with another shot on the post from Sucic. And the wood was the key. Because there were three of them. Three launches. Three shots that went past Courtois and ended up being pushed back by the wood.
But that’s the way it goes. That’s the way this game is. Real Madrid, who touched the ball three times, saw two penalties wipe out their points tally during the visit of Real Madrid. From a serious Real Madrid, who knew how to suffer and took advantage of his opportunities and that he leaves San Sebastian with a victory… and with another wounded man.
