In a tightly contested La Liga match, Real Madrid secured a 2-0 victory against Real Sociedad, with head coach Carlo Ancelotti acknowledging that the game was far from straightforward and arguably undeserved. Vital contributions from Vinicius Junior and Kylian Mbappe sealed the win.

Addressing the media post-match, Ancelotti lauded his team's resilience but admitted that the opposition played exceptionally well. 'It was a complicated game and we probably didn't deserve to win because Real Sociedad played very well, but we held on, we suffered, and we were committed, which I value very highly,' he stated.

The Italian coach praised individual improvements and singled out Luka Modric, Federico Valverde, and Arda Guler for their performances. Ancelotti emphasized the need to critique their play to identify areas for improvement. Following the win, Real Madrid stands second in the La Liga standings and is set to face VFB Stuttgart in the UEFA Champions League.
