Bryan Zaragoza scored one and set up another for Osasuna to gain a historic 4-2 victory over Barcelona. This comes in as the first defeat of the season for the Blaugrana at the Estadio El Sadar after Osasuna dominated them in the first half of the game to take a two-goal lead followed by another two. They have recorded seven wins so far in the league, and the eighth one would have equalled a club record that was made in 2013.
The 23-year-old forward on loan from Bayern Munich crossed for Ante Budimir to open the scoring in the 17th minute. Zaragoza doubled the scoring after beating the keeper with his dribbling. Barcelona forward Pau Victor pulled one back for the visitors, but a mistake from Sergi Dominguez gave the hosts a penalty, which Budimir converted.
Substitute Abel Bretones made it 4-1, but the match was not over yet as Lamine Yamal pulled another one back. Barcelona will remain at the top of the league table, and Real Madrid will have the opportunity to displace them if they succeed in defeating archrivals Atletico Madrid.
