Real Sociedad and Celta Vigo played out a 0:0 draw at Reale Arena on Wednesday evening. The La Liga Regular Season match finished without a goal despite five yellow cards and a flurry of second-half changes. Both sides shared the points as each looked to build momentum after mixed starts to the campaign.
Yangel Herrera went closest to trouble early on, picking up a yellow card in the twenty-second minute. The visitors responded through Yoel Lago, who followed with a booking of his own fifty-two minutes in. Marcos Alonso then joined the list in the fifty-seventh minute before the game opened up with six substitutions between the sixty-first and eighty-eighth minutes.
Real Sociedad kept more of the ball at 51 per cent and registered five shots on target compared to Celta's two. Both teams created one big chance each, but neither could find the net. The visitors made more passes into the final third at 147, yet Sociedad's 11 corners told a different story of territorial pressure.
The result leaves Sociedad in thirteenth place with three points from three games, while Celta remain sixteenth on one point. Each side carried a poor run into this fixture—Sociedad had lost two of their previous three, and Celta had lost two of their last three before the Valencia draw.
