Liga: Barça dominates Real Sociedad and retakes the lead!

FC Barcelona delivered a convincing performance this Sunday afternoon by securing a comprehensive victory against Real Sociedad (4-0) in the 26th round of the prestigious Spanish Liga.

Taking advantage of the early dismissal of Elustondo in the 17th minute, Hansi Flick's men played their game without being truly threatened.

Gerard Martin (25'), Marc Casado (29'), Ronald Araujo (56'), and Robert Lewandowski (60') found the back of the net, sealing a clear victory for the Catalans.

Barcelona retakes the lead
