Real Sociedad 1-0 UD Almería: Real Sociedad can almost certainly be admired in the Champions League next season. The Basque formation defeated Alméria 1-0 on Tuesday evening and can now hardly miss the qualification.
David Silva with Real Sociedad on the threshold of Champions League after a narrow victory
The liberating goal against Alméria, which could use a point to finally face relegation concerns, fell deep into the injury time of the first half, attacker Takefusa Kubo was the shooter. A nice goal, by the way. The visitors were already playing with ten men at that time. The Colombian Luis Suárez was sent off ten minutes before the break for going too hard on an opponent.
The three-pointer gives Sociedad eight points ahead of the number five in La Liga, Villarreal. The yellow shirts still have three games to play: every misstep means that the blue and whites can report in the royal class. Villarreal still plays against Cadiz, Rayo Vallecano and Atlético Madrid. Sociedad can of course also finish it off by taking a point against Atlético Madrid or Sevilla. Villarreal can come alongside at most with one point, and on the basis of the better mutual result, Sociedad will enter the Champions League as number four.
