The match between Osasuna and Getafe at El Sadar stadium ended in a tense battle, with the home side managing to secure victory in the final moments. Although the team from Pamplona did not show outstanding play in the first half and was trailing during the match, they managed to turn the tide and earn important points.
The visitors from Madrid opened the scoring in the 23rd minute after an accurate pass from Luis Milla, which was confidently finished by Borja Mayoral. Getafe controlled the game for most of the first half, creating dangerous chances near the opponent’s goal and not allowing Osasuna to launch their attacks.
However, in injury time of the first half, Osasuna equalized thanks to a precise strike by Abel Bretones, who sent the ball into the top corner, leaving goalkeeper David Soria with no chance. This goal became a turning point, allowing the home side to get back into the game and gain confidence for the second half.
After the break, both teams continued to exchange attacks, but neither was able to take the lead for a long time. Osasuna adjusted their tactics, increasing pressure on the opponent’s half, while Getafe tried to maintain balance and exploit counterattacks.
The climax came in the 90th minute, when defender Alejandro Catena headed in a corner delivered by Ruben Garcia. This goal was the only one Osasuna scored from a set piece during the entire match, which is unusual for the team’s home games. Catena’s strike was so powerful that the visiting goalkeeper was unable to save his team.
The victory allowed Osasuna to reach ten points, all of which were earned at home. Getafe, despite a solid performance and moments of initiative, remains winless for the fourth match in a row. The atmosphere at El Sadar was electric, with fans supporting their team until the final whistle.
This result strengthened Osasuna’s position in the La Liga EA Sports standings and confirmed the team’s reputation as one of the toughest opponents on home turf. For Getafe, the winless streak continues, and the club will have to look for ways out of this difficult situation in the upcoming rounds.
