[size=18pt]MATCH PREVIEW[/size]


[b]Few teams have ever had the measure of Pep Guardiola's Barcelona juggernaut, but Real Sociedad are one of those few who know what it takes to beat them.Barca have lost just three league matches in their last two league campaigns, with the most recent coming at Sociedad's Anoeta in April.April's 2-1 win ensured Sociedad's 31-year-old record of 32 games with La Liga defeat remained in tact as Messi & Co were bowled out one short - but if Barcelona's victory over Villarreal is any evidence, that record will come under threat once again.

Real Sociedad won't care about records with just two weeks into the season - just picking up any point possible in a season where consolidation is paramount.For the less well-equipped sides in the division, the temptation would be to write off fixtures against Barcelona and Real Madrid as four losses.Not Sociedad. Having avoided relegation by two points last season, it can be argued Xabi Prieto's penalty past Victor Valdes ensures their aim this season is staying up, rather than going up.They've started well this season, too. An impressive 2-1 win away to Sporting Gijon gave Philippe Montanier, this summer's managerial appointment from Valenciennes, the perfect start.A double from Imanol Agirretxe provided not just three points, but optimism too, given the absences of Joseba Llorente, McDonald Mariga and Antoine Griezmann.Their home form was impressive last season, their 2-1 win just one of 11 wins in San Sebastian; in fact, just two defeats in six against Barcelona at home represents a better record than most.But this already appears a different Barcelona, which spells trouble for Sociedad, Spain, Europe and the entire world.[/b]

Goaaaaaaal!!!
Xavi 1-0

Fabregas
2-0

msheeeeew

That Barcelona bench is driving me crazy.
Cesc, why now?

Chei,
This Barca team makes football look easy.

dis LA LIGO is becoming less competitive and loosing interest, mtsew

It's 2-2 !

Barcelona surrenders two goal lead to Sociedad.
Busquet could have been sent off but referee takes goal over penalty.

Looks like this people have got hold of Messi. He has also started diving

Well, at least we escape with a point.
Last time we were here, we lost.

BarceDivelona Wetin happen na?

Nice to see other teams get a point against the likes of Real/ Barca

You can bet of this match o! www.ibetam.com

Baca only play good football at night.

The game is currently 3-2 to Real (76th minute).

this is new and refreshing, a rare sight.

nice to see lower placed teams pick a point but this happened with barca last season sha, when they lost at home 2-0 to hercules.

Final score 4-2 (Higuain).

my only question is ,

oga guadiola!!!

dont u have defenders

how can u convert busquets into a defender!!!! and you are using fontas while cave man is on the bench

as per the draw, no b issue, end of season, we Go know who be who

real sociedad beat us at their stadium last season. then guordiola goes there again this season and he is resting key players. complacency is setting in. we shouldn't be dropping points just yet, even if it's just half a point.

as e be so guadiola no try @ all barca no just play up to expectation

this the begining of the end of the reign of barcelona, holla madrid

^^^ ha ha, i would like that
but don't get too excited.
