The Bernabeu crowd were anticipating something better there.

The ball falls to Jude Bellingham on the edge of the box but his effort is tame and trickles into Alex Remiro's hands.

Hamari Traore catches Rodrygo as they both tussle for the ball and the Sociedad man goes into the book.

It appears the intensity has waned at the Bernabeu. Madrid have slowed the tempo right down since taking the lead and Sociedad are struggling to get through the hosts' defence.

Fran Garcia is replaced by Nacho for Real Madrid.

Sociedad revert to knocking the ball around the middle of the park. They can't find any gaps to move it between the lines.

Takefusa Kubo skips past Fran Garcia, who scythes down Sociedad forward and is rightly penalised.

Kieran Tierney makes way for Aihen Munoz for Real Sociedad.

Mikel Merino trips Jude Bellingham off the edge of the box and Real Madrid have a free kick in a dangerous area.

David Alaba plays a long ball towards Jude Bellingham but he is muscled away by Martin Zubimendi.

Joselu has contributed to goals in his last 5 home games in the La Liga (5 goals, 0 assists).

Luka Modric and Eduardo Camavinga come on.

Joselu and Aurelien Tchouameni go off.

Real Sociedad have a well-worked opportunity and the ball falls to Ander Barrenetxea on the edge of the box but his effort is too powerful and causes no trouble.

Dani Carvajal has been a focal point for Real going forwards in the second half and he tries to whip a cross towards a dangerous area but Martin Zubimendi gets back to stop him.

Real Madrid are level on points with Barcelona but below them on goal difference in the standings as things stand.

Could this be a positive sign? Real Madrid have won all previous 12 La Liga games Valverde scored in.

I know it is felt conceding just before half-time is a major blow to a coach but surely conceding straight after it is worse?

That's 15 minutes of planning, explaining and cajoling just gone out of the window.

It's a long way to the finish line for Real Sociedad now.

Real Sociedad try to weave their way through the Madrid defence.

It's Takefusa Kubo with the opporunity once more, but the hosts get bodies back and crowd him out.
