The Royal Society has gone back to Osasuna in the derbi and has qualified for the penalty batch for the quarter-finals of the Cup
The Navarro team advanced 0-2 with goals of Moncayola and Oyarzabal on their own doorstep, but Turrientes and Zubeldia tied, in the final minutes; in the discount, Aitor Fernández stopped a penalty, and in the penalty launches Unai Marrero stopped two.
In this context, the Royal Society has started the match in condo, and Mikel Oyarzabal has been close to it as soon as he has started; but Osasuna has quickly responded perfectly: in the fourth minute, Jon Moncayola has shot brilliantly, from outside the area, in a very difficult auction and has scored a good goal, putting Alessio Lisci's team ahead.
The goal has given confidence to Osasuna, and the Navarro team has also increased its advantage. In a corner, Mikel Oyarzabal, on the first stick, has tried to clear, but the ball has gone towards the goal of Unai Marrero, and the Royal goalkeeper has not been able to avoid the goal of the Rojillos.
The Royal Society was not comfortable and found no way to reach Aitor's goal, while Osasuna was solid and resisting the Blue White attacks. Matarazzo's team had the clearest chances of goal in the first half's extension; Caleta-Car and Oyarzabal barely reached the ball that Susic combed very well and, almost immediately afterwards, Carlos Soler went outside by the post before he went to rest.
Marrero made a good stop for Raúl García de Haro as soon as the second half began, and Soler, in the other area, was unable to finish off when he was close to the goal. The Royal wanted to reach Osasuna's goal quickly, intensely, in the first minutes of that second part. There was a lot of tension in Anoeta, because Alessio Lisci's team had a good advantage, but Pellegrino Matarazzo's men were pressing hard.
In the 73rd minute, Jon Mikel Aramburu threw him out head-on. In two minutes, Beñat Turrientes, with a very good shot from outside the area, scored the goal for the Royal Society. Anoeta exploded after the goal of the beasaindarra, which still had many minutes left in the playoff.
Caleta-Car has managed to send the ball to the nets, but it was out of play. The Royal was constantly attacking and Osasuna was doing well in the back.
Oskarsson, after seven minutes on the lawn, has left the field and has been replaced by Jon Martin for the extension. Real Sociedad and Osasuna, probably very tired, have played less intensely in that extension, at least at the beginning. In the 102 minute, Ante Budimir, head, has topped the longboat; in the next play, Javi Galan, inside the area, has hit the ball with a big stop.
There was a lot of tension and excitement in the derbi. In the last few minutes, Aitor Fernandez was the hero for Osasuna.
Oyarzabal, Guedes, Soler and Sergio Gómez have scored, Unai Marrero has stopped the shots of Moncayola and Catena and the Royal is in the quarter-finals of the Cup.
