Atlético Madrid continued their resurgence emphatically, sweeping aside Osasuna 4-0 at the Riyadh Air Metropolitano Stadium to record a second consecutive LaLiga victory.
Goals from Jonathan David, Kang-in Lee, Robin Le Normand and Álex Baena completed an impressive evening for Diego Simeone’s side, who have now lost just once in their last 14 meetings with Osasuna.
For football fans and bettors in Tanzania, Atlético’s commanding performance offered another reminder of their quality as they look to build momentum and push towards the top end of LaLiga.
Jonathan David Breaks Osasuna Resistance
Atlético entered the contest buoyed by their 3-0 away win over Real Sociedad, a result that helped steady the ship after back-to-back defeats at the start of September.
The hosts took a little time to settle, but once they did, Osasuna struggled to contain them.
Ademola Lookman headed over from a promising position before Kang-in Lee and Cristian Romero both threatened. Atlético eventually found their breakthrough midway through the opening half.
Goalkeeper Aitor Fernández initially denied Jonathan David, but the striker reacted quickly and converted the rebound from close range to make it 1-0.
Fernández prevented the hosts from extending their advantage before half-time, producing a double save against Lee and David, while Baena curled another opportunity narrowly wide.
Lee Sparks Atlético Into Life
Osasuna offered occasional resistance before the interval, forcing Jan Oblak into action through Raúl García and seeing another effort ruled out following a foul in the build-up.
Any hope of an Osasuna comeback quickly disappeared after the restart.
Atlético attacked immediately, with Baena testing Fernández before Kang-in Lee drilled a low finish into the corner to double the advantage.
The South Korean was one of Atlético’s standout performers, constantly creating problems with his movement and willingness to shoot.
Le Normand Makes It Three
Atlético was not finished.
Shortly after Lee’s goal, Robin Le Normand turned the match into a rout with an excellent finish following a corner, putting Simeone’s men 3-0 ahead.
Lee almost grabbed his second with a long-range attempt, only for Fernández to produce another impressive save.
Despite the goalkeeper’s efforts, Osasuna could do little to stop Atlético’s relentless pressure.
Baena Completes the 4-0 Rout
The fourth goal arrived through Álex Baena, who capped an excellent individual display with a beautifully executed first-time finish from inside the penalty area.
Atlético De Madrid 4-0 Osasuna.
Los Colchoneros delivered a comprehensive performance, combining defensive control with ruthless attacking football.
The victory also extended Atlético’s dominant recent record in this fixture, with just one defeat across their last 14 matches against Osasuna.
Osasuna’s Away Problems Continue
While Atlético appear to be rediscovering their rhythm, Osasuna’s situation is becoming increasingly difficult.
Los Rojillos have now suffered three consecutive defeats and have recorded only one victory in their last 10 away matches.
Their lack of attacking threat at the Metropolitano was particularly concerning, especially once Atlético moved two goals ahead.
For Simeone’s men, meanwhile, consecutive victories over Real Sociedad and Osasuna — with seven goals scored and none conceded — provide valuable momentum after a difficult start to the campaign.

Final Thoughts
Atlético Madrid could hardly have asked for a more convincing home performance.
Jonathan David opened the scoring, Kang-in Lee doubled the advantage, Robin Le Normand added the third, and Álex Baena supplied the finishing touch as Atlético dismantled Osasuna 4-0.
After a turbulent start to September, back-to-back victories suggest Atlético are finding their rhythm. Osasuna, by contrast, need a response quickly as their losing streak and poor away form continue.
