Real Madrid wins with one fewer player on the pitch

Although they played with one fewer player on the pitch from the first half, Real Madrid triumphed in a dramatic match against Real Sociedad.

Real beat Sociedad 2:1 away in the match that was part of the fourth round of La Liga.

The royal club scored both goals in the first half.

Kylian Mbappe made it 1:0 in the 12th minute. The scorer of the second goal was Arda Guler in the 44th minute.

Guler also had a goal disallowed in the second minute for offside.

For “Los Blancos”, defender Dean Huijsen was shown a straight red card in the 32nd minute.

The hosts narrowed the deficit in the 56th minute with a goal scored by Mikel Oyarzabal from the penalty spot. But Spanish player Oyarzabal’s goal did not threaten Real’s eventual victory.

It was the fourth consecutive win for the team managed by coach Xabi Alonso.

Sociedad still have no wins. They have three draws and one defeat.
