Real Sociedad faltered in their visit to the top team so far in the Europa League, Lazio, and lost their slim chances of securing direct access to the round of 16 of the tournament. A match to forget quickly turned sour for the team from San Sebastián, as Spanish player Mario Gila capitalised on a deflected ball in the Basque area to score Lazio's advantage just as the match began.
Real Sociedad, overwhelmed from the very start, narrowly escaped a second blow just a quarter of an hour into the game when Taty Castellanos' header was cleared off the line by Brais Méndez, with the help of goal-line technology.

Real Sociedad
Remiro, Aramburu, Zubeldia, Aguerd (Pacheco, min. 71), Aihen Muñoz, Zubimendi (Aritz, min. 46), Brais Méndez (Javi López, min. 36), Sucic, Kubo (Barrenetxea, min. 46), Oyarzabal (Marín, min. 46) and Becker.
Goals: 1-0: min. 5, Gila. 2-0: min. 31, Zaccagni. 3-0: min. 34, Castellanos. 3-1: min. 82, Barrenetxea.
Referee: Lawrence Visser (Belgium). Booked Rovella, Zubimendi, and Zaccagni. Sent off Aihen Muñoz with a second yellow card, min. 30.
Incidents: Matchday 7 of the Europa League group stage played at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome.
The Basque side suffered, unable to shake off the local dominance, when a great strike from Sucic rattled the post of the Italian goal. The opportunity allowed the Basque team to grow into the match, a rising trend completely halted by Aihen Muñoz's second yellow card and Zaccagni's goal, devastating for Imanol's team, extremely fragile at the Olimpico.
Castellanos definitively sank the txuri-urdin side before the break, turning the second half into a mere formality, a true ordeal for Real Sociedad. With no hope left despite Barrenetxea's consolation goal, Imanol Alguacil spared minutes for Zubimendi, Kubo, and Oyarzabal, three key players, with an eye on the league clash against Getafe and the final group stage assault in the Europa League, which must serve to secure the playoff spot against PAOK Salonika.
