Real Madrid In Six Goal Thriller

[Folami David]

Even while marking time to the end of a trophyless season - and the end of the Jose Mourinho era - Real Madrid can't avoid drama.
.
Diego Lopez made nine saves against Real Sociedad - his best record in a league game since he signed for Madrid.
.
After Jupp Heynckes finished his Bayern Munich career in style on Saturday night, his agent evoked the possibility of the 68-year-old returning to the club that he led to the 1998 Champions League title.
.
Enrique Reyes told Spain's Radio Nacional that his client "would be delighted to return to Real Madrid" and "if Florentino (Perez, Real Madrid president) called him, he would certainly accept the offer."
.
On the pitch, the side that is still Mourinho's for now made a major intervention in the race for the fourth and final Champions League place.
.
El Real drew 3-3 at Champions League hopefuls Real Sociedad in a thrilling match. With Gonzalo Higuain, Jose Callejon and Sami Khedira on the scoresheet, they led 2-0 and then 3-2 after being pegged back.
.
Yet the last-gasp equaliser bundled in by Xabi Prieto was the very least the Basque side deserved, with Diego Lopez making a string of fine saves for Mourinho's men.
.
As it was, Sociedad were overtaken into the coveted fourth spot by Champions League perennials Valencia. The inevitable Roberto Soldado struck a second-half winner against Granada to give Los Che the edge going into the final round of fixtures.
