The seventh round of La Liga continues. Since Real Madrid suffered a crushing 2-5 defeat to Atletico Madrid, a win in this match is crucial for Barcelona to overtake Real Madrid in the standings.

Although Real Sociedad's performance since the start of the season has been poor, the team's fighting spirit is not lacking. Barcelona dominated the match throughout, but Real Sociedad scored first. Barcelona then stepped up their attacking tempo, and Koundé equalized! In the second half, Yamal, who had missed several games due to injury, returned to the pitch and quickly assisted Lewandowski to put the game ahead. At the end of the match, Barcelona came from behind to defeat Real Sociedad 2-1, surpassing Real Madrid at the top of the table.

Playing at home, Barcelona firmly controlled the game from the start. Young players De Rodriguez and Baldeggi performed well, and Rashford's individual breakthroughs were also on full display. Real Sociedad capitalized on a set piece, giving Szczesny a cold sweat. In the 10th minute, Barcelona capitalized on a corner kick, producing a brilliant play. Rashford's shot was miraculously saved by the goalkeeper!

Barcelona's attack remained stagnant until, in the 31st minute, Barrenetxea dribbled past Koundé's defense, sending a cross into the net for Odriozola, who found the back post and scored, making it 0-1! Real Sociedad, who had been on the defensive, unexpectedly took the lead, and their defensive resolve became even stronger.

In the 39th minute, the Real Sociedad goalkeeper made another spectacular save, but Pedri's follow-up shot was again blocked by the defender! In the 43rd minute, Barcelona equalized, also from a corner kick. Rashford sent the ball into the penalty area, and Kounde, at the front post, leaped high and headed it home, 1-1! At halftime, the two teams were tied.

Throughout the first half, Barcelona dominated, both in terms of possession and the number of threats created.

For the first half-hour, facing Real Sociedad's defensive defense, Barcelona struggled with luck. Without the explosive presence of Yamal, it was difficult to break through the opponent's defense through combined play. The unexpected goal conceded immediately rekindled Barcelona's attacking momentum, prompting them to increase the pace of the ball and produce a series of impressive combined plays.

Real Sociedad's ability to maintain a draw was largely due to goalkeeper Remiro, who blocked at least three sure-fire Barcelona goals in just the first half. Although the current situation was very passive, given the score remained tied, the second half would likely continue to focus on defensive counterattacks. However, Barcelona had gradually gained momentum since their equalizer, and Flick was likely to bring in more key players after halftime, so Real Sociedad had to be prepared for multiple scenarios.

At the start of the second half, Olmo replaced the underwhelming De Rodriguez, and Barcelona continued their attacking play. In the 57th minute, Yamal entered the game! Just one minute into the game, Yamal used his individual skill to create a gap on the wing, delivering a precise cross that Lewandowski headed home, making it 2-1! Faced with this passive situation, Real Sociedad made continuous substitutions, but it was still difficult to change the situation. Rashford and Olmo continued their long-range shooting, and Remiro continued his heroic save form.

In the 84th minute, Kounde made a mistake in midfield, allowing Real Sociedad to advance. Kubo Takefusa's powerful shot hit the crossbar! Barcelona then launched a counterattack, with Lewandowski's close-range shot also hitting the crossbar! Both teams continued to create scoring opportunities. Ultimately, the game ended with Real Sociedad narrowly losing to Barcelona.

First, victory was Barcelona's primary goal. Although the margin was small, they had achieved the desired result.

Second, with the team currently decimated by injuries, Yamar's return was invaluable. More importantly, it was Yamar's appearance in this match that helped turn the tide. From then on, Yamar became a nightmare for Real Sociedad's left wing defense. With the ball in his hands, Yamar could easily dodge opponents, cut inside, or cross the ball, regardless of who was defending.

Sergio Gomez, who played alongside Yamar, was practically completely outplayed! On at least two occasions, Yamar used a crotch-piercing move to completely dribble past Sergio, triggering the opponent's defensive pressure, which led to him resorting to rough fouls to stop Yamar.

Finally, we must mention the performance of Pedri, the key player in midfield. Besides his familiar midfield organization, in the first half of this match, with the presence of young players like Drogba and Baldeggi, Pedri had to shoulder a greater offensive burden. He frequently rushed the ball into the opponent's penalty area, using his skillful dribbling skills to make the opponent's defense quite awkward. When Flick substituted him in the final moments, the entire audience expressed their admiration for Pedri with the "Messi" worship gesture!
