-

61'Odegaard latches onto the ball on the edge of the penalty area but his curled shot fails to pull to one side or another as it bends right into the arms of Courtois.
-
58'Benzema picks up the loose ball after a poor throw-in and plays an absolutely sublime throughball for Rodrygo, who is unable to find the head of Hazard or the aforementioned Benzema, who had continued his run into the penalty area. More great play from the hosts who now seem confident in the lead.

-
45'The second half is underway!
-
45'Half Time! Half time sees the game all level at the break. Madrid really struggled to get into the game at first and conceded a very early goal, but towards the end of the half they looked more convincing and ready to fight. Real Sociedad have also come out fighting today. An interesting second half to come!
-
45'1 minute of added time!
-
36'A Modric free kick sees the ball fly into the box, where Karim Benzema is waiting to slot it into the back of the net, after beating the defenders to it! Real Madrid are now back in the game!
-
36'GGGGOOOOOAAAAALLLLLLL!!!
-
34'The hosts have done little to convince their fans that they can get back into this game after thirty minutes of play. With no real shots or any convincing play
-
33'Real Sociedad are playing through the Real Madrid press with pace and intent as they continue to get forward down Oyarzabal’s left. Carvajal and Modric have put up precious little opposition in defence, which should be cause for Zidane’s concern.
-
29'Free kick for Sociedad about 30 yards out as Modric brings down Llorente
-
27'Jose Willian has a shot from the edge of the box, but Courtois manages to stop it!
-
23'Rodrygo is down injured after both him and Monreal both go in for the ball in the air, Monreal lands on his back, but the player seems to be okay now.
-
18'Oyarzabal is down and receiving treatment after a bit of a collision with Varane
-
16'A great long distance shot from Mendy forces Remiro into making a great save! It was a powerful shot, but he managed to get to it and deny the home side the equaliser
-
15'Madrid have a corner, which is hit straight into the box, Casemiro gets his head on it but skies it well over the bar!
-
14'Sociedad definitely the best team in the first 15 minutes, Willian Jose shoots straight at the keeper after getting the ball in the box and Courtois lets the ball slip out, meaning there is a scuffle between the two sides for the ball. Real Madrid eventually clear
-
11'Portu and Courtois have a run in after they both battled to win the ball in the box, Courtois got there first and Portu tripped over him, both players okay
-
10'Hazard receiving a lot of shouts and boos for his mistake which led to the goal. Madrid fans are not happy at all
-
7'Hazard runs into the box, where the ball is passed through to him, but he takes it to far to the touchline and his shot reaches the wrong side of the netting
-
7'Zidane looks troubled on the touchline as he urges his side forward. It’s as poor a start as possible for Madrid, who are once again out of possession.
-
4'Real Sociedad have certainly started off the better side here, as they look for a second goal, but Courtois' punch away of Merino's cross into the box sees Sociedad denied
-
2'REAL SOCIEDAD! Willian Jose gets the scoring underway for the visitors. Sergio Ramos gives the ball straight to Willian Jose with a suicidal pass across his area, as he gets past the defenders and the keeper and then just confidently slots the ball into the bottom corner! Early lead for Sociedad
Goaaaaaal!
