El Sevilla clearly beat Osasuna (2-0), that in the Sánchez-Pizjuán he was not as fearsome as a visitor as he had been, and clings to the heights of the table by settling in third place and stopping the Navarrese team, which, without verticality or offensive power, lost its undefeated condition at home.
A goal from the Brazilian Diego Carlos Santos, with an impeccable header from a corner kick at 40 minutes, and another from the Argentine Lucas Ocampos, After a defensive failure at game time, they sealed a clear triumph for the Sevillistas, dominators and who did not go through any difficulties at any time to secure a valuable victory.
In a duel of teams on a streak, two league victories and one draw for Sevilla, and three and two Osasuna, two teams with crossed paths were measured in Nervión: the second best local after Rayo, with 4 wins in a row; against the second best away from home after Real Madrid, backed by 4 wins and a draw away from El Sadar.
In the Navarrese team, only the centrals repeated as headlines Unai García and David García and the Argentine tip Chimy Avila, and returned to the left-handed side José Ángel Valdés ‘Cote’, after serving a penalty in the 0-0 of his team at the Bernabéu. And Osasuna started well in the Seville fiefdom, pressing very high to force errors on his rival.
Even so, it was Sevilla that clearly took the initiative in the face of the intensity and the advanced pressure of the rojillos, who lacked depth to create more problems for the Andalusians.
Although the people from Pamplona, well planted and brave, won almost all the rejections, they did not have much offensive presence, with Chimy Ávila very alone, against a Seville that did not shine, but controlled and monopolized the goal options as in a deflected header from Rafa Mir and, in the 36, a header from Jordán to the post to the center of Rakitic.
The reward for his insistence came five minutes before the break, when a corner kick launched to perfection by Croatian Ivan Rakitic headed the Brazilian center back on goal. Diego Carlos Santos, with an impeccable shot full of impetus and strength against which Juan Pérez could do nothing.
In the resumption, the 1-0 gave more tranquility the locals in front of an Osasuna who tried, but without danger, unable to react. Sevilla, for their part, maintained their dominance, no longer haste or haste, and controlled well by sending in midfield and with punctual attacks in search of increasing their income.
He picked his fruit at the edge of the first hour, when Ocampos debuted this season as a scorer by making the 2-0, empty door, after a serious coordination failure between full-back Jesús Areso and goalkeeper Juan Pérez on a long ball, as neither of them cleared and left it to the Argentine to score from outside the area.
From there a Ontiveros occasion It was the only remarkable thing about the red ones.
