Santiago Solari Blames Referees' Failure to Use VAR as Real Madrid Slump to Sociedad Loss

Real Madrid head coach Santiago Solari admitted that his side must be more clinical in taking their chances after watching his side fall to a shock 0-2 defeat against Real Sociedad on Sunday.

Los Blancos continued their difficult start to 2019 with a defeat in their first outing at the Bernabeu of the calendar year. Vinicius Junior made his first league start for the European champions and looked bright, but failed to capitalise on Madrid's dominance in the match.

Real Sociedad had less than half the amount of shots that Madrid managed, but the visitors were more efficient in taking their chances.
