"Take Kubo with no celebration against his former side and then a change of heart," the ViaPlay Sports commentator said. "He slides along the ground just as he slid in to take the ball away from Courtois."
After joining Real Madrid from FC Tokyo in 2019, Takefusa Kubo only managed to make four appearances for the club during his three-year tenure, before he was shipped out on loan to Villarreal, Getafe, and Mallorca.
After an impressive loan spell at Mallorca last season, the highly-rated winger Takefusa Kubo signed a five-year contract with Real Sociedad during the summer, while Real Madrid retained 50% ownership of his contractual rights.
Kubo has been a crucial player for Imanol Alguacil's team this season, scoring eight goals in 39 appearances for the Txuriurdin.
