Sunday saw us clinch a huge win at the Reale Arena in San Sebastian against Real Sociedad, a victory that materialised when Chidera Ejuke scored at the start of the second half to give us three very valuable points. Xavi García Pimienta's team showed great solidity throughout the match, a sign that demonstrates the growth of the team, not only over the last few matches, but also in the last few weeks and even months, which can be backed up with concrete data.
The first takeaway, which has been key to our recent victories, is the fact we are now fourth in the list of most clean sheets in LaLiga this season. With nine in total, only Atlético de Madrid (13), Sunday's oppoenntts, la Real (12), and Real Madrid (10) have secured more. Three of these have come in the last six matches, all of them away, against Getafe, Valladolid and Real Sociedad, resulting in seven out of a possible nine points.
In addition, we have now only been defeated only once in the year 2025 - against FC Barcelona - pointing to the growth of the team from the robustness and defensive security. In this period, we conceded only nine goals - four of which came at Montjuic - since the turn of the year.
