Real Sociedad claimed a 1-0 win at Girona on Saturday thanks to a first-half goal from captain Mikel Oyarzabal as the hosts slipped to the 13th spot in the LaLiga standings.

Coming off a gutsy victory over Athletic Bilbao, last season's surprise package Girona have failed to string consecutive wins together this term and have 12 points from 10 league games.

Real Sociedad's win moved them to 12 points in 11th place.

The visitors went ahead a minute before halftime when an unmarked Oyarzabal headed home Ander Barrenetxea's cross from the left for his first goal of the season.

Girona had chances to score through Arnaut Danjuma's efforts but were unable to find a way past goalkeeper Alex Remiro with an attack depleted by injuries to Bryan Gil and Yaser Asprilla.
