Valencia collected two early bookings: Justin De Haas was cautioned in the 11th minute and Jose Gaya in the 12th. Sucic struck at 25 after Ochieng's assist, then was booked himself shortly after the interval. At the break, David Otorbi replaced Filip Ugrinic; Mayol brought the score level at 57, assisted by Duro.
Real Sociedad made a double change around the hour, with Orri Oskarsson and Barrenetxea replacing Mikel Oyarzabal and Ochieng. Soler's 75th-minute penalty put the visitors ahead again, but Beitia's own goal levelled the match at 83; VAR confirmed it at 86. Barrenetxea then scored the winner at 90 from Soler's assist, before Oskarsson was dismissed after a second yellow in the same minute.
Five goals and one dismissal were the headline stats; Barrenetxea's strike supplied the decisive highlight. That late swing made a concise summary of the result: Real Sociedad prevailed after Valencia twice fought back.
