Thrashing against Real and eighth consecutive victory in La Liga

Real Madrid remains relentless in the race for La Liga and takes the lead. Arbeloa's team secured a commanding victory against Real Sociedad, who were on an 11-game unbeaten streak, earning their eighth consecutive league win at the Bernabéu. Our team dominated from start to finish, delivering an excellent performance capped with four goals, although the tally could have been higher. The scorers were Vini Jr. with two penalties, Gonzalo, and Valverde. The Uruguayan's goal was particularly stunning, a shot that found the top corner of the visitors' net.

The game started at a high tempo, and our team needed just five minutes to take the lead. Trent delivered a perfectly measured cross from the right flank, and Gonzalo converted it with a precise first-touch finish that left Remiro helpless. Fifteen minutes later, Real Sociedad equalized when Oyarzabal converted a penalty conceded by Huijsen on Herrera. However, the 1-1 scoreline was short-lived, as five minutes later, Aramburu fouled Vini Jr. inside the box. The Brazilian expertly converted from the penalty spot.

It was an entertaining match, and Valverde contributed to the spectacle even further by scoring a remarkable goal. He received the ball from Carreras at the edge of the box, turned to create space against two opposing defenders, and sent the ball into the top corner with the inside of his right foot. Barely half an hour had passed, and we had already seen four goals. Another goal could have come before halftime, but Gonzalo's close-range shot after a great pass from Valverde missed the target.

The 4-1 scoreline came right after the break, with Vini Jr. scoring again following another penalty he won against Aramburu in the 47th minute. The Brazilian stopped sharply at the corner of the box, nutmegged the defender, and was brought down after getting past his opponent. While he had previously beaten Remiro with a central shot from the penalty spot, this time he placed a precise shot to the goalkeeper’s right.

More Chances
Our team was enjoying themselves on the pitch and thrilling the crowd at the Bernabéu. They could have extended their lead in the 70th minute with a cross-shot from Gonzalo that beat Remiro, but Jon Martín cleared the ball off the line. From that point until the end, Arbeloa's side managed the result and are already focusing on the first leg of the playoff to reach the Champions League round of 16, which they will play this Tuesday against Benfica at the Estádio da Luz.
