Real Madrid dominates the opening of the league but fails to mark before the break
Real Madrid produced a dominant display in the first half in their first Laliga match against Osasuna, but Xabi Alonso's team did not find the net before the break.
The summer signatures Trent Alexander-Arnold, Dean Huijsen and Alvaro Carreras made all their championship debut for Los Blancos, but the visitors resolutely defended the aimless competition.
England midfielder Jude Bellingham, sidelined with an injury, could only look at stands because, despite the presence of Kylian Mbappe and Vinicius Jr in attack, the Alonso team could not be pierced.
Defender Eder Militao saw his strike of 35 yards run by Osasuna goalkeeper, Sergio Herrera, in the best effort of the hosts of the opening 45.
Stronger Ante Bumimir, who was the third top scorer in the League The Last Mandate, had a chance of nothing for visitors, but it was Madrid who made most of the attacks.
However, history books are a promising reading for Madrid fans. The hosts have lost none of their last 20 -20 games against Osasuna – won 14, fired six – and did not taste the defeat in their Laliga opening match for 16 seasons.
