What Happened on the Pitch

The match kicked off at 7 pm local time under clear skies. Osasuna started strong, pressing high and forcing the Elche backline to make early mistakes. In the 12th minute, a quick ball from the right wing found the striker, who slotted it past the keeper – that was the opening goal.

Elche didn’t stay quiet. After halftime they switched to a more direct game, sending long balls to their target man. The plan paid off in the 58th minute when a header from a corner curled into the top corner, leveling the score.

Both sides created chances, but the winning moment came in the 81st minute. Osasuna’s midfield wizard picked up the ball just outside the box, turned away a defender, and curled a low shot into the bottom right corner. The 2‑1 lead held until the final whistle.

Key Players and What It Means Next

Osasuna’s striker was the star, finishing with two goals and one assist. His movement confused the Elche defenders and gave his teammates space. On the opposite side, Elche’s goalkeeper made several saves, especially a spectacular fingertip stop in the 73rd minute that kept them in the game.

For Osasuna, the three points push them up two spots in the table, edging closer to a European qualification spot. The win also boosts their confidence after a string of draws last month.

Elche, on the other hand, stays in the lower half but the comeback shows they can fight back. They’ll need to tighten up at the back if they want to avoid another slip‑down.

If you missed the live action, the highlights are now up on the club’s official YouTube channel and the full‑match replay will be on the La Liga streaming service next week.

Bottom line: Osasuna took the three points thanks to an early strike, a resilient comeback, and a late winner. Elche fought hard, but they’ll have to sort out their defensive lapses before the next round.
