CRISTIANO Ronaldo scored with a deflected freekick to earn Real Madrid a battling 2-1 victory at promoted Real Sociedad in La Liga on Saturday.
The world's most expensive player has endured a frustrating start to the season, being booed and whistled by home and away fans, with his anxiety to score a goal clear for all to see.
His wayward shots, exaggerated complaints to the referee and occasional wild challenge had fans at the Anoeta howling until he struck a fierce freekick which ballooned off the wall and past a stranded Claudio Bravo after 75 minutes.
Argentina winger Angel Di Maria had put the visitors in front at the start of the second half only for Raul Tamudo to level soon after.
Real moved on to seven points from three games, four ahead of champion Barcelona, which was traveling to early La Liga pacesetter Atletico Madrid yesterday.
Sociedad refused to lie down and near the end an error from Sergio Ramos led to Iker Casillas having to save on his line, prompting a furious reaction from his coach Jose Mourinho who jumped from his seat and hurled a plastic bottle into the dugout in disgust.
"They were stronger in the first half, we were in the second. I think a draw would have been the fairest result," Mourinho told reporters.
Earlier, financially-troubled Real Mallorca recorded its first win of the campaign beating Osasuna 2-0 at home.
Athletic Bilbao fought back from two down to draw 2-2 at Sporting Gijon while Espanyol overcame Almeria 1-0.
