Real Madrid Come from Behind to Beat Real Sociedad in La Liga Clash

Real Madrid mounted a comeback to maintain their perfect record, claiming the top position in La Liga with a hard-fought 2-1 victory against Real Sociedad at their home ground.

In the early minutes of the match, Ander Barrenetxea opened the scoring for Real Sociedad, but Fede Valverde equalized for Real Madrid with a powerful long-range shot just as the second half began.

The decisive moment came when Joselu, with a commanding header, secured the win for Real Madrid on the hour mark, following Fran Garcia’s run and cross from the left flank. Real Sociedad had their hopes dashed when Take Kubo’s first-half strike, which would have given them a 2-0 lead, was disallowed due to Mikel Oyarzabal‘s offside position.
