MADRID, 10 Feb. (EUROPA PRESS) –
CA Osasuna attacked the Reale Arena (0-1) this Saturday on matchday 24 of LaLiga EA Sports to regain the pulse of the domestic competition, while Deportivo Alavés tied (1-1) against a Villarreal that is still below the Basques on the table.
Jagoba Arrasate asked his team to return to their reality, that of every weekend, that of eating from a menu and not from a menu, after their adventures in the Super Cup and Copa del Rey. A header from Ante Budimir right at the start of the second half gave Osasuna their first away victory in more than four months.
The 'rojillo' team went all out in a demanding place, with a league menu but one of those with a Michelin star, to add 29 points and remove any ghost for the moment from those below. Meanwhile, Real lost sixth place, which Real Betis took from them on Friday. The 'txuri-urdin' team did not take advantage of their chances.
Mikel Merino, Zakharyan, André Silva and a penalty were claimed by the locals, but nothing. Budimir was the one who did not fail and then Real tried again with Kubo but even those from Arrasate grew to suffer less and even allow themselves a quiet dessert in Anoeta. A return to the trade but with a designation of origin.
Meanwhile, Villarreal, who failed to win but continued to move away from the red zone, could not beat Deportivo Alavés in an exchange of headers, Samu and Cuenca, both in the first half, which left the score at 1-1 in Vitoria. The local team did not let itself be tied down by the yellow dominance and was even the first to hit, but it was a continuous back and forth where the 'Submarino' also got it right.
After the vertigo there was some calm in the second half, but Álex Sola charged again for Alavés. The goalkeepers came to the fore and Villarreal managed to impose the pace with the ball control they sought from the beginning. Sorloth had the last visitor and Guridi the local, in the Mendizorrotza distribution: 27 and 25 points.
