Match Recap:
Osasuna secured a crucial victory over Sevilla with a 1-0 scoreline at El Sadar, extending their winning streak to three games. The match was closely fought, but a brilliant strike from Rubén García changed the tide in favor of the rojillos.

The early stages of the game saw both teams tactically balanced, with Osasuna displaying a slight edge in offensive initiative. Their patient ball circulation and wide play paid off in the 25th minute when Rubén García found the back of the net with a precise free-kick. The dismissal of Lukébakio shortly after gave Osasuna a numerical advantage, allowing them to dominate possession and create more attacking opportunities. Despite a red card scare for Ibáñez, which was later overturned to a yellow card after VAR review, Osasuna ended the first half with a narrow lead.

The second half saw a similar pattern, with both teams sticking to their initial game plans. Osasuna continued to press forward, with Budimir and Bryan going close to doubling the lead. Suso’s late header threatened Osasuna’s lead, but Sergio Herrera made a crucial save to preserve the win.

With this win, Vicente Moreno’s side now has 44 points in the league. Their next game will be against Villarreal at Estadio La Cerámica on Saturday, May 3rd, at 16:15.
