Bayern Munich signing Xabi Alonso was surprised by Real Madrid's defeat at Real Sociedad.
It was Real Madrid's first game since Xabi's departure.
"I was very surprised by the result. After Madrid's great start la Real pushed and managed to turn the result around. It was a strange feeling to see my old teammates playing without me. But it was a strange result."
