No success in the areas
The Reale Arena opened its doors for the last time this year. Real Sociedad said goodbye to its fans until 2025, facing Las Palmas. Two teams that came into this game with a great streak. Los white-blue They had just won their last five games, all of them leaving a clean sheet. The Canaries, for their part, have been victorious in seven of their last seven games, highlighting the 0-7 cup victory against Ontiñena or the victory against Barça.
The first ten minutes were of clear local dominance. Sucic wanted to strike the first blow with a long shot that just missed the post in the first minute of the game. The ball was lasting very little for Las Palmas, something that their coach, Diego Martínez, was not liking. La Real quickly recovered its losses and launched the attack. But the clearest opportunity had to be pointed out to Jaime Mata. Zubimendi, who returned to the lineup after overcoming the discomfort that kept him away from the match Europa League, He lost possession when the ball was thrown out but Remiro emerged victorious from the one-on-one with the Madrid striker diverting the chance into a corner. Minutes later, the goalkeeper blue and white He had to intervene again, taking a hand down on Moleiro’s shot.
It didn’t take long for the Real captain to take the stripes out for a walk and respond to the Canarian attacks. Sergio Gómez first crossed a magnificent ball from Aguerd that remained dead on the penalty spot and Oyarzabal went to adjust it in the corner, but he adjusted it so much that it hit the crossbar itself. It seemed incredible that the game went 0-0 at halftime.
With goalkeepers like this, few goals
The crossbar that blocked Oyarzabal’s shot in the first half played a leading role in the second preventing Sandro Ramírez from scoring. Real Sociedad’s intensity was not the same as that of the first half, and Remiro, the goalkeeper with the most clean sheets in the five major leagues, had to intervene again in another Las Palmas attack.
Imanol was not liking what was happening on the pitch and decided to move in search of a goal. Barrenetxea and Olasagasti, even with their renewal in the air, replaced Brais and Kubo. And after these changes, the first warning came from Real after the break. Barrenetxea started a play that he himself ended with a low shot that Cillessen caught without problems. The end entrance blue and white He revolutionized the attack and tried the goal again with a first-time volley that surprised the Dutch goalkeeper. The ball didn’t want to go in.
La Real was seeing how time was running out. He needed a goal to win the game, and He went on the attack. Sergio Gómez had a double chance that he failed to take advantage of, followed by another from Barrenetxea and a long shot from Sucic that Cillessen caught again. The match had become a duel of unbeatable goalkeepers. This made it difficult for both teams to score a goal. And, finally, neither team was able to break down the rival wall.
