Osasuna

Osasuna remains in serious trouble after losing the last four matches. The Pamplona-based side had looked like beating Real Madrid last weekend after taking the lead eight minutes from time, but was pegged back by two late goals and also went down to a late goal against Mallorca on Wednesday as well. Coach Jose Angel Ziganda admits the situation is now critical, but says his side must react. "We are in a complicated situation, but we have to be strong, learn from this and lift ourselves up," he said. Javier Portillo, Javi Garcia, Ludovic Delporte and Xavier Margairaz are all sidelined for Sunday's crucial match at home to Murcia, while Hector Font is doubtful.
