Real Sociedad Statements

Unai Emery spoke ahead of the start of this important match: "It's been a tremendous week. Playing four games away from home is a unique experience. With the circumstances we have, and to get three wins and this draw, it's very valuable. We are a good team, we have ambitious objectives and we measure very well how far we can go. How to break barriers. This year, breaking certain barriers, can be in the League and the start is very important. Very happy, regardless of wanting more. We are above the forecast of what we have worked for the start of the league."

"They didn't let us put balls inside, they caused mistakes and, from there, what we got to their goal, not many, but of course, it was to win the match. From the opposing goalkeeper. Good and enough. And the important thing was not to concede. We set out with the objective of winning. They had a good chance with the free kick, but we had five, two of them very clear".

"If the opposing team waits for you and you circulate very fast, maybe you don't pass them. You have to change direction to the opposite side, the intermediate situations were very difficult, you had to get to Samu, Pedraza, look for the back... you had to go from very clear positions and not take risks. We did that and we created the situations to win. I'm happy with what the team did from what we had planned and with what happened. It was hard for us to find the goal, but Soria played a great game".
