Real Madrid: Yellow (29′)

Facing Sociedad, the away team Real Madrid proactively let their pillars rest when ahead is a competition with Bayern Munich in the semi-finals of the 2023/24 Champions League first leg. Therefore, coach Carlo Ancelotti uses many young players and those who rarely play such as Kepa, Garcia, Dani Ceballos, Diaz, Joselu, Guler.

This seems to have somewhat affected the playing style of “Los Blancos” because the players do not have much cohesion. Meanwhile, Sociedad played with determination and fire. They were pressured by the opponent many times after the opening whistle.

 

But when Sociedad dominated but couldn’t score, they had to pay the price. In the 29th minute, Cavajal stretched to facilitate young talent Arda Guler to score a goal for the away team and 1-0 for Real Madrid.

Sociedad does not accept defeat. They tried to push the team up, but luck was not on this club’s side because VAR denied the goal. Not to mention goalkeeper Kepa also had an excellent day helping Real Madrid keep a clean sheet.

In the end, Real Madrid defeated Sociedad with a score of 1-0. This win helped Real Madrid temporarily widen the gap with the 2nd ranked team on the La Liga rankings, Barcelona, ​​to 14 points (84 compared to 70). The La Liga championship is very close to coach Ancelotti’s team and this is the perfect momentum step for Real Madrid when ahead is a competition with Bayern.
