Atlético Madrid warm up for the derby by thrashing Osasuna

Atlético Madrid claimed a resounding 4-0 victory over Osasuna in a La Liga match, enhancing their position in the league standings. Adam Davy/PA Wire/dpa reported the one-sided game at the Metropolitano stadium. Jonathan David, Lee Kang-in, Robin Le Normand, and Alex Baena all found the back of the net. It was a straightforward warm-up for the upcoming Madrid derby against Real Madrid.

Osasuna had been struggling, conceding seven goals in their last two games, but Atlético capitalized on their vulnerabilities. Despite Osasuna's efforts, including a goal from Raul Garcia that forced a save from Jan Oblak, they could not equalize. Just before halftime, Alejandro Grimaldo set up David for the opening goal. Osasuna nearly equalized in the second half when Inigo Arguibide struck, but Lucas Torro made crucial double saves by Jan Oblak to maintain the clean sheet.

After the break, David's assist to Lee led to an emphatic finish, sealing the win. Baena wrapped up the scoring with a well-executed shot in the final minutes.
