Real Madrid dominated possession and had the lion's share of the chances on a frustrating night for the hosts against a stubborn Osasuna side at the Santiago Bernabéu, with Karim Benzema coming close in the 61st minute as the Frenchman drove his close-range shot over the bar from close range. But that's as good as it got for Los Blancos.

However, the best chance of the game fell to Osasuna 11 minutes prior on 50' as Moncoyola struck the woodwork following a quick 3-on-2 counterattack by the visitors that almost unraveled Madrid. But neither side could break the deadlock and the game ended 0-0, a result which puts Madrid top of the table on goal difference, but level on points with the three teams below them, Sevilla, Real Betis and Real Sociedad.
