"If any of the two teams deserved the victory, even if only occasionally, it was us," Sociedad manager Imanol Alguacil said after his side's draw against Betis.
"Neither Betis nor Real have we played our best game since we come to play in Europe during the week. With the kids of the house we were close to taking victory.
"We knew it wasn't going to be an easy game, and they came with many casualties. It's a great team, with a very good coach, and they're going to be in the mix."
