Sociedad went ahead through a goal from Alexander Isak but Roger Marti soon levelled for Levante, while Jorge de Frutos struck a late winner for the hosts, leaving Alguacil’s side without a win in eight matches in all competitions.
“We are the same team as we were a month ago, that team which made everyone fall in love with them, but we’ve had some important injuries and our results have suffered, but our energy and enthusiasm has not dropped,” Alguacil told reporters.
“We may have not won for eight games but we’ve competed in a dignified way in every game and in most of them we have deserved more.”
A second consecutive league defeat after Wednesday’s 2-1 loss at Barcelona left the Basque side in second place, three points behind La Liga leaders Atletico Madrid having played three games more.
