Barcelona defeated Real Sociedad 2-1 on Sunday to claim the top position in the La Liga standings. The victory came after Real Madrid suffered a 5-2 defeat against Atletico Madrid on Saturday, which opened the door for Barcelona's advancement.
Alvaro Odriozola put Real Sociedad ahead during the first half before Jules Kounde leveled the match with a header. Lamine Yamal entered as a substitute after recovering from a groin injury that sidelined him for four games.
The 17-year-old winger immediately created the decisive goal for Robert Lewandowski within minutes of his introduction. Barcelona leads the Spanish league by one point ahead of their Champions League match against Paris Saint-Germain on Wednesday.
