Mourinho, returning to the stadium thirteen years after his departure, received a muted reception from the crowd. The team's performance in the initial 45 minutes mirrored the inconsistency that has plagued them in recent seasons, raising questions about their title aspirations. The presence of six new faces and a new coach had not immediately translated into a seamless start.

Mbappé, who had expressed frustration over missed chances earlier in the game, finally found his scoring touch in the 40th minute. His first goal was set up by an impressive assist from Fede Valverde, who was celebrating his first match as club captain. However, Real Madrid's lead was short-lived as Real Sociedad capitalized on defensive lapses just four minutes later, with Luka Sucic equalizing.

The second half saw a tactical shift from Mourinho, with the introduction of Marc Cucurella. This change coincided with increased pressure from Real Madrid on the left flank and a more prominent role for Vinícius Júnior. Despite some initial control issues and dribbling attempts from Vinícius, the team's overall attacking prowess, led by Mbappé's clinical finishing, secured a comfortable win.
