The new football smiles at Osasuna and turns off Real Sociedad

At Reale Arena almost all the landscape is new in recent times: the name of the stadium, its structure, the tint of Januzaj… even the illusions of the parish, now intoxicated by the old yearning for Champions. All these mutations are joined by this unknown football that has re-founded the pandemic. And in the case of tonight's appointment, an unexpected slate from Arrasate, which persisted in the three centrals as in the Cup against Real, but this time in a very unsuspected way.

The point is that Osasuna created a gigantic degree of uncertainty in the first part in a trustworthy team that was comfortable for the fourth place in the League, although he was able to repair it in the second half. The red box, organized in a martial way, had a very high serve rate and canceled the pass lines with the suffocating pressure of Cardona and Adrián, who embittered this return to central soccer Le normand and Elustondo. Imanol looked shallow.

There were a thousand red ambushes, narrowing the field, and Estupiñán found a highway on the left. He was the driving force behind the visiting game. In a center of the Ecuadorian, he reached out and instinctively tried to hide it from Le Normand. Silly penalty in the 28 'that the VAR betrayed. Adrian scored and the both further fueled faith in Arrasate's plan.

The Real neither attacked nor defended well. I was out of control, without the demand of football to adjust your pieces with those of the opponent to compact a block in which a fissure condemns one or the other. The hydration pause and rest made the decentralized local team reconsider.

La Real came out with one more gear in the second half. Zubeldia it was embedded between the central ones to reduce effectiveness to the pressure of Cardona and Adrian. But a serve by Rubén, combed by Brasanac, allowed the ilerdense point to take the back of Le Normand and Elustondo, although he left with the instep. Oyarzabal tried Rubén down below. Both he and For your They rehearsed inside to unsettle the visiting rear.

A robbery allowed Willian José to drive quickly through the center, an area that seemed prohibited, and his pass to Oyarzabal set the tables. The Real found damage with fast transitions. But Osasuna ended as it started. Brasanac found two balls that grazed the goal and Remiro made one of those anchovies for trusting that they almost left him bare.
