End of match

94'FT: Real Sociedad 0-2 Real Madrid!! All over in San Sebastian and Madrid deservedly win. After an even first half, the visitors were much better in the second 45. Vinicius put them ahead in the 47th minute and once Jovic made it 0-2 after 57, that was that. The last 30 minutes were a non-event, in all honesty. RM go eight clear at the top on a great weekend for them. That's all from us, thanks for your company and see you again soon!

45'HT: Real Sociedad 0-0 Real Madrid! Half-time at the Anoeta and it's a fair score! The game has been very even, but the main news is that Benzema went off injured after just 15 minutes. Isak and Oyarzabal have come the closest for the home side while Vinicius tested Remiro early on. We're set for an exciting second half!
-
45'45+1: One added minute, Sortloth wins the corner, but the ref says no time to take it!! It was 6 or 7 seconds over time so that's perfectly justified despite Sociedad's protests.

33'Madrid look for the opening, but Sociedad hold firm.
