Euskaraz irakurri: Arnaizek, goal luzapenean sartuta, Kopako final zortzirenetan jarri of Osasuna, Castelloren aurka (0-1)

Osasuna It has been classified this Sunday for the round of 16 of the Copa del Rey of the 2023-24 season, to win, 0-1, at Castellón in the Nou Castalia, in round of 32 of this competition. Jose Arnaizin the 108th minute, in the extension, scored the goal that qualified Osasuna for the next round. Jagoba Arrasate’s team played a good game, and they had opportunities to resolve earlier, but they were not able to materialize their superiority until the final stretch of the match, with Arnaiz’s goal.

In the first half, Osasuna has dominated the match, and has managed to create several very dangerous plays, but the scoreboard has not moved, and the two teams have reached the break with the initial 0-0. The clearest chance came from Raúl García, just before the end of the first half, with a header from close range, which went directly to the crossbar. The forward of the Navarrese team himself has been the protagonist in other actions in which the 0-1 has been close, but there have been no goals in those first 45 minutes.

The second part There has been a lot of pace in several sections, and the dominance has been alternating, since, although Castellón has come out strong, Osasuna has been able to respond, and has also had opportunities to score. The last minutes of regulation time, with extra time already looming, have presented two teams with ambition, who have been able to score the decisive goal; Villahermosa, in the 83rd minute, shot against the post, and, almost immediately afterward, Raúl García, in a one-on-one with the local goalkeeper, was on the verge of scoring the goal. This one did not arrive, however, and the tie went to extra time.

In that extra time, Castellón and Osasuna have maintained an even duel in their first half; but, in the second, Osasuna pushed hard, and achieved the goal they were looking for. In the 108th minute, after the local goalkeeper, Schwake, had made an excellent save on a great header from Rubén Peña, Jesús Areso went in from the right, in an interior position, and made a very intelligent through pass for José Arnaiz, who scored the goal.

Torró, in a brilliant free kick, and Budimir, with a header, hit the post before the last attacks of the locals, who have not given up and have shown why they are fighting to return to LaLiga Hypermotion and are completing a great campaign . So, Osasuna, in addition to moving to the second round, adds new momentum for the Super Cup, which begins this Thursday in Saudi Arabia.
