Real Sociedad footballers are not doing their best in the Europa League group stage, despite reaching the playoffs of the tournament. In six meetings the Basques managed to win only 2 victories. Basques scored three points each in the match against Rijeka and AZ, having won over rivals with a score of 1:0. It is curious that three more meetings ended in a draw and Real Sociedad suffered the only defeat in the game at home against Napoli. Before the match against Manchester United, San Sebastians were able to win away from Getafe and also defeated Cadiz, which allows them to remain among the leaders of the championship.
The team of Paulo Fonseca, former coach of Shakhtar Donetsk, entered the Europa League directly, finishing fifth in Serie A. The Romans have a task to return to the Champions League and this can be done not only by getting into the top 4 in the championship, but also by winning in the Europa League. So far, Roma have reached only the 1/16 finals of the tournament, so it’s too early to talk about a possible triumph. The Italian club won their group without any problems, although they scored 13 points like Braga. Together with the Swiss Young Boys the Wolves left the Romanian CFR and the Bulgarian CSKA from Sofia behind the tournament. In the Italian championship Roma are still third, but the handicap over the seventh place is only three points. So, probably, Fonseca’s team will have to fight with all their might on two fronts.
