Orri Óskarsson
RSO
Goals in two straight
Oskarsson scored a goal while taking seven shots (one on goal) and crossing once inaccurately during Sunday's 2-1 win over Levante.
Analysis: Oskarsson opened the scoring after just six minutes while leading Sociedad with his seven shots. The forward has goals in back-to-back league matches while combining for 11 shots over that stretch of games.
Scores in return to XI
Oskarsson scored a goal while taking four shots (one on goal) during Sunday's 5-2 win over Malaga.
Analysis: Oskarsson found the back of the net in the 26th minute while finishing with the second most shots on the team. The start was the first in La Liga since September 3rd for Oskarsson and his first goal since August 29th.
Ends suspension
Oskarsson is no longer banned and is an option for his club moving forward.
Analysis: Oskarrson was sent off in a match before the international break but has now served the suspension, set to return to play in the coming games. The forward has started in three of his six league appearances this season, having been a useful option with his one goal so far this season.
Scores twice with Iceland
Oskarsson scored two goals and added an assist in Iceland's 3-0 win over Bulgaria on Saturday.
Analysis: Oskarsson was the star of the game for Iceland, getting involved in all three goals, and he could've had a hat-trick but missed a penalty late in the second half. Oskarsson is serving a domestic suspension, so he won't be available to face Deportivo on Oct. 11, but he should be back in the mix when Sociedad play in both Europe (Union SG, Oct. 15) and domestically (Malaga, Oct. 18) in the following week.
Receives red card
Oskarsson was shown a red card in stoppage time of Sunday's 3-2 win over Valencia.
Analysis: Oskarsson would leave the field on the winning side but would still be sent off late into the contest, as he would rapidly pick up two yellow cards for dissent in the final moments of the game. This will suspend him for a game, missing out against Deportivo on Oct. 11 when the club resumes action, and returning to face Malaga on Oct. 18. He would only appear from the bench, so this shouldn't force a change in the starting XI.
Scores winning goal
Oskarsson scored one goal to go with three shots (three on goal) and two crosses (zero accurate) in Saturday's 2-1 win over Espanyol.
Analysis: Oskarsson netted what would be the winning goal, and he was rewarded for putting all three of his shots on frame. He should retain his position in the starting lineup against Celta Vigo, a team which has conceded four goals so far this season and allowed 48 in 38 matches last season.
Three shots in opener
Oskarsson generated three shots (one on goal) and one chance created in Friday's 1-0 loss versus Betis.
Analysis: Oskarsson started Friday's season opener, leading the line for Sociedad to start the new campaign. He took three shots and created one chance in his full 90 minutes of action but was unable to find a goal contribution as he and his side dropped the opening match of the season. He faces a more difficult matchup Wednesday at Real Madrid.
Scores opener in 1-1 draw
Oskarsson scored one goal to go with four shots (three on goal) in Saturday's 1-1 draw against Espanyol.
Analysis: Oskarsson scored the only goal for Real Sociedad as they went on to draw 1-1 with Espanyol. This was his eighth start of the season, and he scored his ninth goal of the campaign. Six of his eight starts in La Liga have come in the last eight Real Sociedad matches. He has taken at least three shots in the last three matches he has played in.
Goals in two straight
Oskarsson scored a goal while taking three shots (two on goal), crossing twice inaccurately and creating a chance during Sunday's 4-3 loss to Valencia.
Analysis: Oskarsson found the back of the net in the 63rd minute scoring Soceidad's third and final goal. The forward has goals in two straight appearances while combining for nine shots, two chances created and three crosses in his last three appearances.
Clears suspension
Oskarsson has served his one-game ban against Girona and is eligible again for future contests.
Analysis: Oskarsson was in good form before serving suspension, as he achieved three goals over his last five matches played. Despite being a strong attacking option, the striker usually sits behind Mikel Oyarzabal in the center-forward depth chart, although it's also possible that both strikers play in a front two, in which case the Icelander would be an interesting source of offensive numbers.
Handed fifth yellow card
Oskarsson is set for a one-match ban due to yellow card accumulation.
Analysis: Oskarsson is not going to be an option come Thursday, as he will be suspended to face Girona due to yellow card accumulation. After starting in four of their past five games, this will force a change, likely leaving Mikel Oyarzabal to start at forward while the team goes for a less attacking formation.
Finds back of net
Oskarsson scored one goal to go with two shots (two on goal) and one chance created in Sunday's 3-3 draw versus Rayo Vallecano. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 56th minute.
Analysis: Oskarsson would score the second goal of the match for Sociedad on Sunday as they worked for a draw, finding the back of the net in the 63rd minute. This comes as his second goal in their past three games, also scoring against Alaves. He is up to six goals on the season in 14 shots, recording 16 appearances (five starts).
