Ricardo saved from close range, but Ronaldo poked the rebound to Carvalho who only had to side-foot the ball into the empty Osasuna net.

Higuain should have doubled the lead when clean through after 63 minutes, but Ricardo parried his shot wide for a corner. A minute later Ozil went close from a narrow angle after Flao broke the offside trap.

A lacklustre Benzema was replaced by Pedro Leon for Madrid with 20 minutes remaining as the game began to lose its way. Osasuna were not creating any chances, while, with the exception of Ozil and Sergio Ramos, Madrid were also looking sluggish.

Higuain wasted another chance to make the points safe with 10 minutes to go as Ricardo made another decent save, but with Osasuna failing to put Iker Casillas under pressure on one single occasion, it didn't matter in the end.
