Real Sociedad ended a four-game losing run in style Friday in La Liga as they hammered Deportivo la Coruna 5-0 at the Anoeta.
Willian Jose continued his excellent recent form, putting the hosts ahead before the break. An Asier Illarramendi brace, plus goals from Sergio Canales and Aritz Elustondo, added the gloss in the second period.
Sociedad move nine points clear of the drop zone with this win, while Depor remain in 17th and in real danger of relegation on this evidence.
On Sunday, runaway leaders Barcelona make the trip to local rivals Espanyol, who are the only team to have beaten the Blaugrana in any match in 2017-18.
