Traveling this Saturday to Osasuna, Real Sociedad settled for a draw (1-1). She could lose her sixth place on Sunday, to the benefit of Betis.
It’s not a very good operation that Real Sociedad has just carried out. Traveling to Osasuna on Saturday evening, the Basque team did no better than a timid draw (1-1, 15th day of La Liga). Now sixth, two points behind Athletic Bilbao (5th), Imanol Alguacil’s team is threatened by Betis who could steal their European place if they succeed on Sunday in Almeria.
However, Osasuna seemed to be a ready victim for Real, as the evening hosts remained on a sad run of four games without success, including three defeats and a draw. But it was the locals who opened the scoring without delay, through Gomez (1-0, 2nd). The visitors equalized just before the break thanks to Sadiq (1-1, 41st).
Sterile domination
As for the second half, it will be scoreless despite the outrageous domination of Real Sociedad (80% possession). Unfortunately for Kubo’s partners, none of their eight attempts (twice as many as Osasuna in the second act) ended up on the bottom. Enough to leave good friends.
