Match Report
Real Madrid eventually found two late goals to break Osasuna's fierce resistance and go within five points of La Liga leaders Barcelona with a 2-0 away victory on Saturday night.
The home side managed to frustrate the Spanish champions until the 78th minute, when Federico Valverde arrived in the box to slide in Vinicius Junior's cross.
Vinicius had a strike chalked off for offside before Marco Asensio sealed the win, finishing from close range after Real won the ball high up the pitch.
Los Blancos' best chance of the first half fell to Vinicius after a poor back pass from Jon Moncayola, but his effort was smothered by Sergio Herrera.
Osasuna did try to get shots away and went close through Ante Budimir, but the Croatian's strike from the edge of the box missed the target.
Vinicius and compatriot Rodrygo looked electric in attack, with the latter curling just wide of the far corner before Vinicius saw the first of two goals disallowed for offside.
Moi Gomez hit the post after beating Valverde and Moncayola sent an ambitious volley only slightly off target as Osasuna sniffed an upset in the second half.
Real Madrid left it late but managed to claim all three points as they closed the gap on LaLiga leaders Barcelona to just five points.
Federico Valverde and Marco Asencio came up with late second-half goals to ensure that the champions walked away with a win.
Madrid are refusing to let Barcelona slip away with ease, but the Catalan giants can restore an eight point lead at the top of the table when they take on Cadiz on Sunday.
