MATCH REPORT.Mireia Jiménez

An away win for Real Madrid, beating Real Sociedad in matchday 28 of the league season. Bruun and Athenea struck in the first half to give our team their 22nd win of the season, their 12th on the road, where they're on a great run of form.

Toril's team were quick out of the blocks and it didn't take long for them to go ahead. In the 8th minute, after a great play by Linda Caicedo saw the Columbian's shot cleared off the line by the home keeper, but the rebound found its way back to Bruun to make it 0-1. Real Madrid were dominating and, in the 30th minute, they made the most of another great chance to extend their lead. Athenea ran into the area, went to ground, but got up and combined with Møller, who set up the Cantabrigian to slot home the second with a shot into the top corner. Cecilia pulled one back soon after with a free-kick (36').

In the second half our team's attacking flair stood out once again, creating several chances to increase the lead. Linda Caicedo was especially impressive, playing a key role, bringing pace and movement to the attacking play. The Colombian tried her luck with two shots that went just wide (57‘ and 59’). As the minutes ticked by, the match opened up and the home side also had chances, but the Madridistas prevailed. Toril's side return to action after the international break at the Alfredo Di Stéfano against Athletic Club (Sunday, 9 June, 8:30pm).
