FULL TIME. Griezmann's goal gives Sociedad an unexpected victory and the home fans don't like it one bit. A poor performance from Valencia.
90+3'
Griezmann is replaced after a fine display, with Carlos Martinez on in his place.
90+1'
We will have three added minutes.
90'
Pablo bursts into the box but Gonzalez produces a fine challenge to stop his run. Excellent defending.
88'
Just a few minutes for Sociedad to hold out now for a very decent victoryt at the Mestalla.
86'
Banega approaches the left-hand side of the box and sends an angled shot past the far post and wide. That was fairly close, which is about as good as Valencia have done in this second half.
84'
Space opens up for Jonas in the centre of the pitch but he fires his shot down the throat of Bravo.
83'
Jordi Alba races into the box to try and collect a loose ball but Claudio Bravo comes off his line to collect as the wide man looks alert.

McDonald Mariga comes on to replace Aranburu in the Sociedad midfield and shore things up a touch.
79'
Valencia howl for a penalty when Jonas goes to ground but it was never a spot-kick, just a bit of mutual pushing and pulling with Cadamuro.
77'
Griezmann will be man of the match unless something spectacular happens. He looks a very fine player.
75'
Valencia really have been horribly disappointing tonight. Unai Emery will be furious with his side.

That earlier knock for Feghouli has resulted in his withdrawal and he is replaced by Paco Alcacer.

Griezmann, who has been the best player on the pitch tonight, fires another shot over the bar as Sociedad look for a second. They have been vastly improved in this second half.

Sociedad bring on Carlos Vela, on loan from Arsenal of course, to replace Agirretxe.
69'
Feghouli falls heavily after colliding in the air with Mikel Gonzalez.
68'
Now Sociedad press forward again and Agirretxe pops up in a central position before lashing a shot wide of the post.
67'
Elustondo takes the free-kick and his effort is deflected behind for a goal-kick.
66'
Agirretxe wins a free-kick 30 yards from goal as he draws Rami into a clumsy challenge...
65'
A change for Valencia as Parejo is replaced by Jonas.
