Real Sociedad came from behind to beat Celta 2-3 on Saturday, the win taking them to the top of the table pending the rest of the weekend results. New signing Maxi Gómez twice put the home side ahead, the first midway through the first half after Wass headed back Sisto’s cross, and the second following a corner soon after the break. Oyarzabal and Juanmi levelled it both times however, and Willian José got the winner near the end with a controversial penalty after Jonny brought down Vela as he was entering the area.
