Head coach Eduardo Berizzo's squad took the lead once more in the 78th minute with a right-footed shot by John Guidetti, but Los Colchoneros netted the next two goals of the contest, courtesy of Carrasco and Antoine Griezmann, to pull off the come-from-behind win.

Superstar Cristiano Ronaldo broke the game's deadlock in the 24th minute before head coach Petar Vasiljević's side scored their lone goal of the match in the 33rd from a squeezing shot by Sergio Leon between Sergio Ramos and Raphael Varane.
Real then netted the next two goals with strikes by Isco and Lucas Vazquez in the 62nd and 90th+3 minutes to hand Osasuna their 14th loss in the season.
