The Whites came into the match with an impeccable league record, having triumphed in their previous four matches. Their most recent result was a hard-fought 2-1 win against Getafe, which saw them maintain a two-point lead over arch-rivals Barcelona. Determined to continue their winning streak, Carlo Ancelotti has deployed his eleven strongest players for this crucial match.

Meanwhile, Madrid had a somewhat slow start to the season, with just one win and three draws in their opening games. The star player in their group was star striker Takefusa Kubo, who consistently led by example. In their previous match they recorded a thrilling 5-3 win over Granada, which gave them the momentum to continue to grow.

The match started with an exciting display from Real Sociedad, with And Berenetxea finding the net in the fifth minute thanks to a quick cross from the flank. Despite conceding possession after taking the lead, the visitors showed remarkable discipline and patience, sticking to their defensive shape in an attempt to frustrate Real Madrid and draw mistakes.

In the first half, both teams had identical shot statistics, with each team recording four shots on target in ten attempts each. Sociedad goalkeeper Alex Remiro put in an excellent performance to thwart the home side's attempts in the first period, allowing his team to go into halftime with a 1-0 lead.

Real Madrid wasted no time in reasserting their dominance after the break, with Federico Valverde scoring a superb goal in the 46th minute to level the score. Buoyed by this momentum, the hosts continued to press forward, using the width of the pitch through their wing-backs to create chances and orchestrate attacks.

The turning point came when Fran García made a brilliant run down the left flank, launched a precise cross, and found an unmarked Joselu waiting at the far post. The towering striker beats all others and scores with a header, giving Real Madrid a 2-1 lead after 60 minutes of play.

Both managers made strategic changes towards the end of the match, but it was Real Madrid who ultimately held firm and secured a hard-fought 2–1 victory over Real Sociedad.
