Liga: Real Sociedad snatches an unexpected success from Granada

After its elimination from the Champions League against PSG, Real Sociedad had the opportunity to revive today against Granada, penultimate in the standings. With only one victory in the last 23 games, the Andalusian team is in despair in this La Liga and was the perfect team for the Basques lacking confidence since the start of the year. At home, the Rojiblancos quickly took the lead in the match. Much sharper, Facundo Pellistri’s teammates obtained and converted a penalty through Myrto Uzuni (21st). But Granada failed to make the break and suffered an equalizer from Umar Sadiq (33rd).

Highly visible, Myrto Uzuni doubled the lead just before the break thanks to a well-placed header (45th+3). Solid defensively, the Andalusians managed to hold the score for the vast majority of the second half. This was without counting on the reaction of the Basques at the end of the game. Former Gunner Kieran Tierney found Robin Le Normand who concluded the action with a nice strike (80th). First flagged in an offside position, Andre Silva delivered his own a few minutes later (86th). By reversing the situation, Real Sociedad has finally returned to success. It had been four games since they had won. If this defeat can prove cruel for Granada, it relegates the Andalusian club to 10 points from first non-relegation.
