Mumbai, January 14: Real Sociedad recorded a sixth clean sheet in a row at home on the way to a 1-0 win over Villarreal in La Liga on Monday. Sociedad played under protest having criticized the league for a schedule that will see it play three games in seven days. However, the busy run got off to a perfect start thanks to Japanese winger Takefusa Kubo, who six minutes into the second half seized on a long clearance to muscle his way into the Villarreal box and poke the ball under the goalkeeper.
