This was Barcelona’s second La Liga defeat of the season, leaving the Catalan giants six points clear of second-placed Real Madrid, having played an extra match.

Barcelona failed to extend their advantage at the top of LaLiga as Sheraldo Becker’s first-half strike earned Real Sociedad a 1-0 victory at the Reale Arena. Barca boss Hansi Flick was dealt a blow before kick-off when Lamine Yamal was ruled out through injury and Becker’s 33rd-minute goal was enough to condemn the visitors to their second league defeat of the season.
