    Thank you for following the game with us! (21:54:02)
     
    For Real Sociedad this home loss means a setback in their fight for the Europa League but they stay ahead of Villarreal who lost 0-1 against Atlético Madrid on the road earlier today!

    Real Madrid keep their chances for the La Liga title 2013-14 alive after FC Barcelona and Atlético Madrid also won today!
     
    In the first half Real Sociedad were at least equal to Real Madrid and could have scored first various times but a goal late in the first half by former Real Sociedad midfielder Illarramendi opened the scoring for the team from the capital.

    In the second half Real Madrid completely outplayed Real Sociedad though and hit twice the crossbar and had multiple scoring opportunities of which they used three through Bale, Pepe and Morata to make it a 4-0 away win which is maybe a one or two goals too high.
     
    Game over.

    Goal for Real!


    Just two minutes after coming into the game ALVARO MORATA adds the 4-0 for Real Madrid after receiving a well-timed long through ball by Di María and then getting the ball into the right corner past Claudio Bravo!
     
    87
    Casemiro, another Real talent, comes in for Xabi Alonso who leaves the pitch under heavy booing by the home fans!

    85
    Goal for Real!


    PEPE adds the 3-0 for Real Madrid following a corner from the right side! Sergio Ramos brilliantly assisted with a header back towards the six-yard box and Pepe then just fired the ball over the goal line from short distance!
     
    83
    Griezmann revceives a long ball left to the guest team's defensive area but his shot from a sharp angle is no danger for Diego López.
     
    81
    Isco leaves the pitch and makes room for Ángel Di María.
