We have some and it is better not to be more jinxed with this situation. This week Carles Aleñá fell with an injury in yesterday's training, and Juan Iglesias with shoulder surgery. It is not usual, but the season has passed this way. The most positive thing has been the ability to adapt that we have constantly had. The boys are going to take a step forward and we are very calm about that. The commitment is absolute.
They are a great team, they are on a good streak, they are very close to certifying Europe. A lot of talent up front, a lot of intensity in the center, a high-level defense... the difficulty of facing an opponent like that is enormous.
In recent days we have achieved a little more balance, and we have been able to concede less. From there, we are having a hard time scoring goals, with Mayoral out it has been difficult to find those goals. Add all possible points, the objective cannot be any other. We are ambitious and we want to reach the last day with great feelings. There are difficulties now with the casualties, but we never have excuses.

Imanol Alguacil
Manager on Real Sociedad...LAST RESULT
I was neither sad nor crestfallen, we were angry. It was like that and the players were the same. We could win the game. After that, face the future. There are seven games in which there are many points at stake and difficult matches. Excluding last year, we have qualified in the last few days and in the minutes of injury time.
...INJURY REPORT
Aihen is long-lasting but recovers very well. Brais Méndez, if all goes well, he could be training with the team next week. The pity is that of Carlos, who came with a good period of readaptation. We always say that if you miss weeks of training, it will be difficult for you to come back.
...TRAORE'S MISTAKE
It is true that he has had disconnections and specific moments but he is giving a lot to the team. Against Alavés he plays a very serious game defensively. The other day he made that mistake, but those are things that happen in football. We all fail here, and when we don't get it right we all do.
...OPPONENT
We are going to play a football match, we are not going to war. I think that the clubs and coaches who criticize Bordalás and his teams for that are looking for excuses. He seems like a great coach to me and always makes his teams competitive. It is very difficult to beat them.
