David Moyes' Real Sociedad side saw off bottom club Cordoba 3-1 at the Anoeta Stadium on Sunday night, as the visitors had three men sent off in a fiery affair.

Aleksandar Pantic was given his marching orders after just six minutes for the visitors, but this didn't stop Florin Adone from giving them a shock lead in the first-half.

Imanol Agierretxe equalised for Sociedad before the interval though and Chori Castro was able to make the most of the one-man advantage after the break to give the hosts a 2-1 lead.

Inigo Lopez was then shown two yellow cards in quick succession, before substitute Alfred Finnbogason wrapped up the win with a late goal.

Daniel Pinillos became the third Cordoba player to be sent off in injury time on a truly awful night for the club.

For Moyes' team it was a third successive win in three La Liga games, a run that has seen Sociedad move into the top half of the table.

The Scot has overseen just five losses in his 22 games in charge of the club so far.

The former Manchester United manager is currently looking to rebuild his reputation in Spain following the ill-fated tenure at Old Trafford that had concluded in his sacking in April 2014.
