Three talking points from Real Sociedad 0-1 Barcelona

Barcelona headed into the match after losing their unbeaten start to the season with a 2-1 defeat by Real Madrid last weekend in El Clasico.

Xavi’s side have had the best part of a week to get over the disappointing loss but looked completely hungover for most of the match in the Basque country.

Real Sociedad started strongly and really went for Barcelona, and if it hadn’t been for the heroics of Marc-Andre ter Stegen in goal (once again) would surely have won.

The German made saves from Ander Barrenetxea, Mikel Oyarzabal and Take Kubo in the first half, while the visitors created zero chances and didn’t manage a shot on target.
