European football: Kylian Mbappe lifts 10-man Real Madrid past Real Sociedad
"Kylian Mbappe scored and provided the assist for Arda Guler as Real Madrid weathered a second-half storm to beat Real Sociedad 2-1, maintaining their perfect La Liga start despite playing most of the match with 10 men. The visitors got off to a flying start with Mbappe opening the scoring from a quick counter in the 12th minute, but their task became significantly harder when the defender Dean Huijsen was shown a straight red card after the half-hour mark"
"Despite their numerical disadvantage, Real Madrid doubled their lead just before half-time when Guler scored from close range following a great run by Mbappe who brilliantly put the ball on a plate for the Turkish midfielder inside a crowded box. Real Sociedad pulled one back through Oyarzabal from the penalty spot in the 56th minute after a handball by Dani Carvajal, but the visitors held on for a hard-fought victory"
