It wasn’t the most exciting match of the year, nor the smartest of any of the 16 royal footballers on the green of El Sadar, on a cautious night of football where Real took advantage of penalties and the inability to score . Osasuna advances to the quarterfinals. In the second part, by the hand of Zakharyanthe Imanol They find more and better spaces to combine.
1
Remiro
viewer
He returned to the eleven after a cup change and was sanctioned by his league, and he was almost without a job. He intercepted a simple ball in the 46th minute and seemed embarrassed to go out at the end.

2
Aritz
Crowded
That’s right, without fanfare, his band is shutting down. He is aggressive in duels. He asked for a change at the end and to see how he would fare on Saturday.

3
Zubeldia
Header
He deflected a shot with his head in the first half, and won the duel in front where he extended the penalty ball in the second. Safe and corrective back.

4
Le Normand
Decisive
He believed more in that pumped ball and caused the penalty and the red card from Catena, which ended up deciding the match. He suffered with Budimir in conflicts.

5
Tierney
Wrong
The game started poorly and took too many risks and lost a major duel in the second half inside the area. It needs to be improved now.

6
Zakharyan
Gamer
It started badly with a poor first half that illustrated its problems to shine inside this Real. But he was the star of realistic chances in the second, where he improved significantly. Found the best spaces to receive or deliver. He moved to the left for the last half hour, and there he was very much the protagonist, with the drive and level of actions. Aitor avoided his excellent goal from the front with a save.

7
González de Zárate
Brave
He started with a loss in his fifth start but grew over time to become one of the best. The game was good until his body caught up, lacked rhythm, and was a little soft in the conflicts. You need more opportunities like this.

8
Merino
Be careful
They maintained their loss rate and low level in general, although they left some details of quality in the second half. He noted Zakharyan’s arrival well on the first realistic occasion. He whole-heartedly denied Brais’ penalty scoring a goal with his right foot that would have sealed the tie but he did not celebrate.

9
Oyarzabal
executioner
He punished Osasuna with a well-delivered penalty to celebrate his eleventh goal of the season. He suffered a lot to contribute to the right. He left a good header for André Silva at the origin of the penalty action.

10
Andre Silva
Solidarity
Very smart moves and moves that, no doubt, help the team play. He shot his back with frequency and accuracy, but it was difficult for him to aim. They blocked his only shot. 72 minutes. If he is like this, he should have played in San Mamés, three days ago, when he was not there for 10 minutes.

Eleven
barren
shy
59 quite discreet minutes from San Sebastian. He drew a dangerous foul on the only imbalance action he attempted all game.

12
Turrientes
clean
‘4’ is half an hour long. Compliant, not shining or participating too much, but his position is fine. Great drive at the end in second penalty action.

13
braise
Frustrated
He wants the ball all the time and helps keep it. He fouled Aitor in the 96th minute, drawing a penalty, but he missed it again. They went two by two. Took a break to visit his house.

14
Sadiq
Get well
A heel and a pair of running. But playing 25 minutes at El Sadar on January 17 was something unthinkable when he left and when he came back injured. His shot almost reached Africa.

fifteen
Magunazelaia
Energetic
He gets the minutes by effort. On the right, better than on the left, he entered with power. He saw the yellow card as soon as it came out and it was 0-2, but he shot, with more anger than the goal, at the dummy.

16
Aramburu
Assets
He immediately replaced Aritz and defended the right line tooth and nail during the local siege. He did not stand or mark his pair in a corner. A dream come true, beyond Requena’s cameo, and a real choice for Saturday.
