Real Madrid regained its spark in La Liga with a commanding 4-0 victory over Osasuna on Saturday night at the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium in the 13th round of the 2024-25 Spanish league season.
Brazilian star Vinícius Júnior opened the scoring in the 35th minute, with Jude Bellingham adding another goal in the 43rd. Vinícius scored twice more in the second half, in the 61st and 69th minutes, solidifying Madrid’s dominance in the match.
However, the bright night at the Bernabéu wasn’t without setbacks, as Rodrygo Silva and Éder Militão were injured, prompting the coach to bring on Brahim Díaz and Raúl Asensio.
This win comes after a tough series of defeats, including a 4-0 loss to Barcelona in the last La Liga round and a 3-1 defeat to AC Milan in the Champions League.
