A great performance with goals to match&#8230; This is my immediate reaction to the big win.

Gonzalo Garc\u00eda would get the nod, ahead of even Kylian Mbapp\u00e9, as he was joined by Vin\u00edcius J\u00fanior in attack. Trent Alexander-Arnold was back, allowing Fede Valverde into the midfield. Castilla player of the season (so far) Ces\u00e1r Palacios was called into the bench. Fede Valverde was the captain.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">What should have been a challenge became quite the opposite, when Gonzalo Garc\u00eda delicately poked the ball past the keeper after a superb Trent Alexander-Arnold cross picked him out. Dean Huijsen then gave away a penalty, which was scored by Mikel Oryazabal &#8211; before Vin\u00edcius J\u00fanior scored one of his own moments later. Fede Valverde then extended the lead to make it 3-1 come half-time.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Vin\u00edcius J\u00fanior got the second half going with another penalty kick, scoring to make it 4-1 and add another to his tally. This sadly put the game to bed early, and other than a penalty shout for Sociedad &#8211; little happened of note for the next half an hour. Madrid were playing well, though &#8211; and Trent Alexander-Arnold in-particular was earning a lot of plaudits on his return to action. Real Sociedad had a goal disallowed with five minutes left to play, before Vin\u00edcius was denied his hat-trick with a disallowed goal of his own in added time. Full-time: 4-1 to Real Madrid, and a great performance from the team.
