Arda Guler scored in the 1st half to earn Real Madrid a 1-0 win at Real Sociedad on Friday, moving the La Liga leaders one step closer to a record-extending 36th Spanish title.
With 5 games remaining, Madrid have climbed to 84 points and extended their lead to 14 ahead of second-placed FC Barcelona, who have a game in hand and host Valencia on Monday.
Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti left out several key players ahead of their UEFA Champions League semi-final against Bayern Munich, but his side did just enough to secure the three points.
The winner was 19-year-old Turkish midfielder Guler, who made his first start for Real Madrid after signing from Fenerbahce, converting Dani Carvajal’s cross in the 29th minute.
