Key Takeaways:
- Sevilla ended a three-match winless streak with a 2-0 victory against Osasuna
- Isaac Romero’s third goal of the season took him to the top of Sevilla’s scoring charts
- Osasuna have now won only once in their last 18 visits to the Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan Stadium
Match Overview
Sevilla returned to winning ways in LaLiga with a convincing 2-0 triumph over Osasuna, putting an end to their three-game streak without a victory. Osasuna’s struggles at the Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan Stadium persisted, securing just a single win in their last 18 encounters at this venue (D3, L14).
Osasuna manager Jagoba Arrasate, hoping to continue his positive start after a 2-0 success against Racing Santander during his second spell in charge, witnessed his side miss a golden opportunity inside four minutes when Flavien Boyomo headed wide from a corner despite being unmarked.

First Half Action and Goal Scorers
Sevilla responded immediately as Felix Correia skewed a volley wide moments later, and Ante Budimir was also unable to convert a chance at the opposite end. Both sides were lacking sharpness in front of goal until the 24th minute, when the hosts produced a moment of quality: Youssouf Fofana delicately flicked Correia’s pass into Isaac Romero’s path, who confidently struck his third goal of the campaign past Aitor Fernandez.
This goal lifted Romero to Sevilla’s leading scorer for the season, marking the club’s 15th La Liga goal to that point – scored by 12 different players. The moment underscored Osasuna’s recent struggles to open the scoring, having struck first in only three of their latest 13 fixtures. Sevilla dominated following the breakthrough, with chances falling to Castrin – who fired over from 12 yards – and Chidera Ejuke, who forced Fernandez into a low save.
Second Half Developments
After the interval, Sevilla lost some rhythm amid a scrappy, foul-filled restart that tested the patience of the home supporters. Their threat resumed midway through the second forty-five, with Fernandez pushing away Fofana’s long-range free-kick, followed up by Juan Iglesias volleying against the upright.
As full-time loomed, Kike Salas was denied by Fernandez’s sharp reflexes from a header. Sevilla, however, ensured victory eight minutes from time when Felix Correia’s effort deflected into the net, sealing his second league goal this season.
Statistical Summary and League Implications
Securing all three points, Sevilla maintained sixth place and narrowed the gap to fifth-placed Real Sociedad to just two points. The win also extended their home streak against LaLiga sides outside the traditional ‘big three’ – Real Madrid, Barcelona, and Atletico Madrid – to five consecutive victories. Osasuna remained in twelfth position, enduring a tough spell with just one win in their previous twelve away matches (D2, L9).
