Atletico Madrid 1 - 0 Osasuna: Jurado stunner grabs win for ten men Atleti

Atletico Madrid players celebrate Jurados strike against OsasunaLa Liga Monday didn't let me down. Another dull match, this time between Atletico Madrid and Osasuna, that was settled by a moment of magic from the talented Jurado. The first hour could be described at best as a bit of friendly sparring between the two sides, with no real moment of danger from either side. Then on the hour mark, Simao received his second yellow for a high challenge on Azpilicueta and you would be forgiven for thinking that would be Osasunas signal to go for the kill. But bar a couple of good chances which produced crucial saves from David De Gea, Osasuna wilted. And they were punished by a moment of supreme skill by Jurado who received the ball on the edge of the box with ten minutes left, took a touch and unleashed a devilish, curling effort which gave Ricardo no chance. A rare moment of class on another sluggish monday night.
