Despite both goals coming from penalties, I am still quite satisfied with the result Madrid had in today's match because at least the 3-point mission in difficult conditions where the players they have are experiencing a hurricane of injuries, especially in midfield, but in the end they still got 3 points in today's match.
Sociedad in the end was not an easy opponent as predicted before where they gave a very good resistance especially they also played home which made their confidence increase but in the end Madrid was able to give their best and get back 3 points which of course this is a good capital for them to avoid criticism that will be received.
With this result, my bet with odds of 1.75 in the end is not too bad because this is an appropriate thing in my opinion for betting on Madrid this time.
Regardless of how Real Madrid wins the match, what is clear is that 3 points are safe to reduce the gap with Barcelona. But then, the performance of this team was really unsatisfactory mainly because they had almost no chances to score goals in any other way. Real Madrid's lack of opportunities is actually due to a lack of creativity in some players, this is a problem in itself as many players are injured.
I will look forward to seeing Barcelona's response in the match in a few hours. I hope Barcelona can snatch a win from Girona to maintain their winning consistency at the start of the season. Only with this will Barcelona be more enthusiastic about competing, they clearly don't have much other than enthusiasm and good performance from their players.
Player injuries are the main obstacle for Real Madrid to win easily at this time. As time goes by, when all players are back available, and the adaptation period has gone according to expectations, we will see a variety of goals created by Ancelotti attack line. In reality, half of Los Blancos creativity and calmness have been lost since Kroos retired, now Ancelotti can only hope that Modric can give his maximum contribution even though he is no longer young. Clearly, the most important thing now is to reduce the points difference with Barcelona, currently the two teams are only one point apart. Real Madrid will be very lucky if Girona can hinder the progress of Hansi Flick squad, because it will not make the points difference widen again. We realize that on paper Barcelona is the favorite, but we also haven't forgotten that Girona has made surprises, anything is possible.
