Improving Atletico cruise to comfortable win over Osasuna
Diego Simeone’s side moved third in La Liga with a 4-0 victory, building momentum ahead of the derby clash against rivals Real Madrid.
Atletico Madrid secured a commanding 4-0 victory over Osasuna at the Riyadh Air Metropolitano Stadium on Wednesday, boosting their position in La Liga and preparing for the upcoming derby against Real Madrid. Goals from Jonathan David, Lee Kang-in, Robin Le Normand, and Alex Baena contributed to Diego Simeone's team's easy triumph.
The match was notable as Atletico arrived without injured striker Julian Alvarez, yet they still managed to secure a second consecutive win, narrowing the gap on top rivals Barcelona and Real Madrid. During the game, Osasuna's goalkeeper Jan Oblak made a crucial save to deny Raul Garcia, while Atletico's defense thwarted Ademola Lookman's effort on target.
With this result, Sevilla climbed to fourth place, tied on 13 points with Atletico, after a 1-0 win against Deportivo La Coruna. Barcelona and Levante are set to face each other later in the day, with the Catalan giants looking to extend their perfect start to the season, and Levante aiming to offset their 2-3 defeat against Athletic Bilbao.
