Match Report

Rayo Vallecano and Real Sociedad shared a breathless 3-3 draw at Vallecas on Sunday, with Alemão's header in the ninth minute of stoppage time completing a remarkable comeback for the hosts. Mikel Oyarzabal opened for La Real on 22 minutes before Sergio Camello levelled (30'). Orri Óskarsson put the visitors back in front (63'), and the game turned on a contentious VAR call that wiped out Pedro Díaz's equaliser for a foul in the build-up — Oyarzabal converting the resulting penalty to restore a two-goal cushion (76'). Florian Lejeune pulled one back (84') before Alemão's dramatic late header sealed the point. The result extends Rayo's home unbeaten run to seven matches and keeps them five points clear of the bottom three. For Real Sociedad, it's another stumble in the league — just one win in their last five top-flight outings.
