Real Madrid Concludes Season with 2-0 Victory Over Real Sociedad
Real Madrid's Season Finale
Real Madrid wrapped up their season with a 2-0 victory against Real Sociedad in Madrid. Kylian Mbappé was the standout player, netting the first goal after his penalty was saved by Sociedad's goalkeeper, and scoring again in the second half with an assist from Vinicius. The night was also a heartfelt farewell for Luka Modric and Lucas Vazquez, along with coach Ancelotti, who received warm tributes from the Bernabéu crowd. Throughout the match, Madrid controlled possession and dictated the pace, although Sociedad made a brief resurgence.
Real Sociedad's Missed Opportunities
Real Sociedad had several chances to score but ultimately fell short, with Sergio Gomez missing a clear opportunity in the first half and Marin failing to convert a header from a free kick. Although their performance improved after an own goal from Madrid, they struggled to capitalize on their chances in the final third. Real Madrid effectively managed the game, particularly in midfield, while Sociedad's set pieces were ineffective.
Potential Strategies for Sociedad
Sociedad could have achieved a better scoreline had they been more clinical in front of goal, especially after their quick start. Coach Aranzubia might have benefited from introducing Oyarzabal and Barrenetxea earlier than the 70th minute. By applying pressure near Madrid's goal and exploiting defensive errors, they could have created more scoring opportunities. Improved passing accuracy and strategic movements in the attacking zone were crucial for converting possession into real threats.
