Match Report

Real Sociedad were denied a vital win as Deportivo Alaves snatched a 3-3 draw at Reale Arena, Lucas Boyé rifling home in the seventh minute of stoppage time to shatter home hopes. Duje Caleta-Car's third-minute own goal gifted Alaves the opener, but Luka Sučić leveled with a 25-yard strike on 14 minutes. Ibrahim Diabaté restored the lead (24') before Benat Turrientes's long-range effort deflected in off goalkeeper Antonio Sivera to make it 2-2. Orri Óskarsson headed home a Takefusa Kubo cross on the hour to put the hosts ahead, but a VAR red card for Sergio Gómez at 90+3' left the door open — and Boyé, set up by Denis Suárez, made no mistake with a cool finish into the corner. The point extends Alaves' unbeaten run to four games and opens a three-point cushion above the relegation zone, while Real Sociedad rue a costly slip in their push for European football.
