Real Madrid took their difficult visit to Real Sociedad 2:0 in a match of the fifth round of the Spanish La Liga.
Both goals for the champions came after the break and from penalty kicks. First, Vinicius Junior scored in the 58th minute, and a quarter of an hour before the end of regular time, Kylian Mbappe, who scored two goals in the last round victory over Betis, scored his third goal of the campaign to put an end to the dispute in San Sebastian.
That's how Carlo Ancelotti's men have climbed, albeit temporarily, to second in the table with 11 points, one of leaders Barcelona, who visit Girona in a Catalan derby later today. Sociedad is 16th with only 4 points.
In their next matches, the Basques visit Mallorca, while Real Madrid first welcome German Stuttgart in the Champions League, and then host Espanyol in La Liga.
