Real Sociedad 1-1 Real Zaragoza

Real Sociedad looked to be on course to pick up a vital three points after Abreu had scored in the first half but a late goal from Ewerthon meant the points were shared.

The first half was a tight affair with Abreu going close with a header from a corner that the Zaragoza did well to save. Zaragoza also had their chances but Bravo was equal to them. On 39 minutes the home side increased the pressure and a headed clearance from a free-kick was nodded back into the danger area by Marcos and Abreu beat the offside trap and brought the ball down with ease before slotting past the keeper.

The second half was also very tight with Real Sociedad keen not to give anything away but also seeking the killer second goal. With fifteen minutes to go the away side threw on another forward to get the equilaser and with two minutes to go a ball was played through to Braulio but Bravo pushed the ball away before hitting the defender and the referee unbelievably gave a penalty when it was clearly a well timed challenge. This led to very angry scenes in the stands and on the pitch and Ewerthon kept his cool to blast the penalty home. Moha was red carded for his protests and on the final whistle the referee had to be protected as he left the pitch.
