Real Sociedad Women aim for first Liga F points at Granada
They visit Granada after a 0-2 loss to Logroño, with Gorka Álvarez making his league debut as head coach.
Real Sociedad Femenino travel this Monday at 7:30 pm to Granada’s Ciudad Deportiva looking for their first Liga F points. The txuri urdin side come off a 0-2 opening-day defeat to Logroño, a stumble that, as Mundo Deportivo reports, followed the departure of Arturo Ruiz from the Donostia dugout.
League debut under pressure
The game will mark Gorka Álvarez’s debut as head coach in domestic competition, according to Mundo Deportivo. While he has already taken a seat on the bench during the European knockout tie against Chelsea, the immediate focus is to correct the league start—recovering the attacking fluidity and defensive solidity that were missing on day one.
Granada wants to bounce back
Granada, meanwhile, also arrives needing a response after losing 3-1 to Madrid CFF in their league opener. Mundo Deportivo notes that Elene Guridi—a Real Sociedad player on loan to the Nazarí side—will be in the squad, having scored the only goal for Granada in that first match.
With Miguel Ángel Ortiz Arias set to referee, the clash is an opportunity for Real Sociedad to build confidence and turn the new tactical direction into points. Although the European schedule is already on the horizon, this is the priority test: get the first three and settle into the new project.
