David Moyes admitted his Real Sociedad side could have lost by a heavier scoreline as Villarreal ended his unbeaten start in Spain with a 4-0 win.<\/p>\n
Ex-Manchester United boss Moyes earned four points from two La Liga matches, plus a Copa Del Rey draw at Real Oviedo, in his opening three games.<\/p>\n
Sociedad had not conceded a goal in any of those matches, but capitulated against Villarreal in Sunday’s defeat.<\/p>\n
“It could have been more, we could have lost more goals,” said the Scot.<\/p>\n
“We made some terrible mistakes, defensively bad mistakes, especially with the third and fourth goals.”<\/p>\n
Sociedad registered just two shots on target as they dropped to 14th in the Spanish top-flight.<\/p>\n
“In the first 20 minutes of the game we had some opportunities, but not enough,” said Moyes.<\/p>\n
“We knew we were coming to a difficult ground and we wanted to be hard to beat, and for 50-60 minutes we were, but in the end it was not good enough.”<\/p>\n
The Basque side, who are three points above the relegation zone, face local rivals Athletic Bilbao at home on Sunday<\/p>\n
