'Rusty' Real Madrid begin La Liga season with 0-0 draw vs Real Sociedad


Real Madrid had an underwhelming return to La Liga as they could only draw 0-0 away to Real Sociedad on Sunday in the first game of their title defence. Real Madrid looked rusty and particularly toothless up front, barely creating any chances of note in either half as Karim Benzema found little support in Brazilian teenage forwards Vinicius Jr. and Rodrygo. Madrid keeper Courtois said he was pleased with his side`s performance all in all. Odegaard started against Sociedad, where he had a highly successful spell last season, but Real were unable to properly command the middle of the park without Casemiro, who started on the bench before coming on in the second half. Sociedad`s David Silva made his first La Liga appearance in a decade when he came on as a substitute in the second half.
