    Time:90'
    • Osasuna
    • Valencia CF
    • 90+4 And that's the final whistle, Valencia ease to victory and move back up the third in La Liga.
    • 90+3 Flano is shown a straight red card for a fairly unspectacular challenge on Banega but ah, the replay shows he aimed a kick at the Argentine well after he'd gone. Idiotic behaviour from someone who should know a lot better and he'll miss at least three matches now.
    • 90+2 Baraja has a pop from the edge of the box but wide.
    • 90+1 Some of the home fans are leaving early to escape the rush. There are white handkerchiefs being waved too, which is harsh really given the difference in personnel.
    • 90' Four minutes added time being played.
    • 89' Valencia come forward down the left and have men over but the cross is just beyond Pablo and knocked behind for a corner.
    • 88' Good delevery at the near post, Baraja flies in but misses it and Alexis heads over but it took a deflection, another corner.
    • 87' The corner is cleared but still with Valencia and Baraja's through-ball is blocked for another corner.
    • 86' Pablo on the right tries an audacious cross-shot that almost sneaks in at the near post but Ricardo tips behind for a corner.
    • 84' Juanfran on the right swings in a brilliant cross AND FLANO MUST SCORE BUT HE MISSES IT AND DADY HEADS IT WIDE! Flag was up, wouldn't have counted.
    • 83' Cesar has to race out and palm it behind for a corner after Bruno let Masoud through.
    • 82' VALENCIA SUB: Ruben Baraja on for Marchena, like for like.
    • 81' Banega shows his excellent ball-retention skills with a mazy dribble on the left that seems him eat away at the clock.
    • 80' OSASUNA SUB: Their last chance as Ruper is on for Nekounam.
    • 79' The ref waves a card at either Marchena or Villa, I would plump for the latter with Marchena hanging around as captain.
    • 77' VALENCIA SUB: Alexis on for Joaquin.
    • 76' Villa takes the free-kick but swings it over.
    • 75' Good passing from Valencia culminates in Banega winning a free-kick off Masoud on the edge of the box.
    • 73' Play restarts with a throw to Osasuna, a long one is played into the Valencia box but easy enough for Cesar.
    • 71' Another object is thrown from the stands, this time almost hitting an Osasuna player although Mathieu was probably the target. Delay in play while the ref talks to his assistant.
    • 69' VALENCIA SUB: Banega on for Silva to shore it up in midfield.
    • 68' Saltor with a poor clearance only as far as Punal, who swings a cross in AND MASOUD WITH A HEADER PAST CESAR AND IN! 3-1, probably only a consolation but good spirit from the hosts, down to 10 men.
    • 66' Osasuna are still pushing for something though as they barrage the Valencia goal...
    • 64' Pandiani is shown a second yellow so a red card, Osasuna down to 10 men. Soft dismissal, an arm across Marchena while both went for a header.
    • 61' Valencia are understandably not overly keen on pushing any further as this develops into an unseemly scrap.
    • 59' Almost a hairy moment for Cesar after a backpass nearly plays him in trouble but Osasuna fail to capitalise and Valencia clear.
    • 57' OSASUNA SUBS: Masoud on for Calleja and Dady on for Aranda.
    • 55' Valencia win a throw on the right which Bruno takes, he does really well to race on to the return and somehow digs out a cross, headed away BUT MARCHENA WITH THE DRIVE THAT LOOPS IN OFF THE BAR! What an effort! 3-0.
    • 53' Punal quite harshly booked for the marginally higher foot while challenging with Albelda for a 50-50.
    • 52' All getting a bit scrappy now as Valencia look to contain Osasuna, who are in danger of losing their cool.
    • 51' Valencia come forward down the left but Pablo loses the ball and Juanfran tries to build something for Osasuna, eventually doing well to win a free-kick off Villa.
    • 49' Punal pumps it into the Valencia box but Juanfran can't get a shot away and Silva brings it clear.
    • 48' Free-kick to Osasuna on the left, Punal to launch this one...
    • 46' Second half underway!!
    • 45+2 Now Osasuna have a free-kick on the right but Cesar claims and it's half-time, Valencia lead 2-0.
    • 45+1 Aranda wins a corner on the right for Osasuna but cleared by Valencia.
    • 45' Two minutes added time being played...
    • 44' Punal swings the free-kick into the area where Aranda rises to head just over!
    • 43' Osasuna try to work it in down the right but Mathieu and Pablo combine to clear, so they move it left where Punal wins a free-kick.
    • 42' Joaquin to take the outswinging corner but too deep. Still with Valencia as Silva picks it up, a one-two with Villa and Silva drills it low FOR NAVARRO FLYING TO THE NEAR POST BUT SIDE NETTING! Half the ground thought that was in - I certainly did!
    • 41' Villa cuts in from the left and tries a curling shot that should be easy for Ricardo but spins outside just at the death to fly inches wide! Ref says it got a deflection, corner Valencia.
    • 39' Pablo is offside but that looked pretty tight, he seemed to time his run to perfection.
    • 38' Promising spell for the hosts but Cesar claims the cross at the near post.
    • 36' Aranda takes it on the chest and tries a volley on the spin but Dealbert does enough to put him off.
    • 35' Dealbert with a mistake that could let Aranda in but Navarro gets across to head out.
    • 34' Josetxo hoofs it out after Silva almost got in behind left-centre. Mathieu now crosses looking for Villa but just over his head and Osasuna clear.
    • 33' The replay shows that, when Cesar delayed taking the goal-kick that saw him booked, he had been hit in the back by an object thrown from the crowd. Maybe if referees spoke to players before waving cards they may look less silly when they get it wrong.
    • 32' Aranda and Navarro clash heads for which Aranda is inexplicably booked, it was clearly an accident as both went for the ball.
    • 31' Super delivery to the far post which Navarro and Joaquin attack but no-one gets a touch and out for a goal kick.
    • 30' Free-kick to Valencia around 30 yards out to the left, Silva will take...
    • 29' Cesar is booked for time-wasting after procrastinating while taking a goal kick. He's in danger of talking his way into a red too, Marchena has to order him off.
    • 27' Great play by the visitors as Villa and Silva combine but Joaquin, played through by the latter, is just offside.
    • 25' Mathieu robs Juanfran and races down the left but his ball inside for Silva is intercepted.
    • 23' Poor delivery, back with Cesar, who launches it for Ricardo to claim.
    • 22' David Navarro accidentally catches Aranda with a high boot. Free-kick Osasuna...
    • 20' Albelda with a great ball wide to Pablo, he shimmies and cuts it back and in flies Silva but his shot is blocked, it almost spins in off the heels of Villa but just cleared in time, Albelda has it now AND HE LOBS RICARDO FROM 30 YARDS FOR 2-0! Great stuff from Valencia, talk about making your own luck!
    • 19' Joaquin finds Villa from 30 yards, he has a pop but well wide. He saw Ricardo off his line but got the execution wrong.
    • 18' Pandiani almost gets in again but the ball drifts away and out for a goal kick.
    • 16' Long one almost finds Pandiani but Cesar is equal to it.
    • 14' Yellow for Pandiani, first of the game.
    • 12' Valencia come forward and Marchena has it 30 yards out, delightful chip into the box AND VILLA SPINS BETWEEN THE DEFENDERS TO KUNG-FU KICK IT INTO THE BOTTOM RIGHT! A superb improvised finish from Villa, Valencia lead. Touch of class from Los Che.
    • 10' Dodgy back-pass from Dealbert and Cesar has to put it out for a throw on the right.
    • 7' Terrible attempt from Villa straight at Ricardo in the home goal.
    • 5' Mistake by Mathieu lets Aranda in and Cesar has to race out to clear.
    • 3' Pretty slow start to this encounter, although with a nice fresh pitch Valencia will fancy their passing game tonight.
    • 1' Match underway in Pamplona!!
