Take Kubo's tackle on France

In a disputed Basque derby, Real Sociedad managed to overcome Alavés. The first half was not great football, between technical fouls and sterile possession for Real. The visitors' various shots produced nothing, Mikel Oyarzabal had difficulty creating situations. Before the break, Takefusa Kubo had to come off due to injury.

In the second half, Real Sociedad accelerated in particular thanks to their Russian midfielder Arsen Zakharyan. His corner found a taker in the person of Jon Pacheco, who adjusted his header (59th). The Spaniard was the only scorer of the match, as Alavés had one last opportunity to equalize in the final moments of the match. Rafa Marin, alone in front of the wide open goal, only managed to find the back of an opposing defender. With this third consecutive victory, Real Sociedad consolidates its sixth place. Alavés has still not achieved its maintenance.
