FC Barcelona 2-0 Osasuna: Post-match review, Stats, Key moments

Dive into Bwin’s post-match review of FC Barcelona 2-0 Osasuna in the La Liga on Saturday, 13 December 2025, with stats, key moments and our take on the match.

FC Barcelona won 2-0 against Osasuna. The first half ended goalless, with Barcelona dominating possession but unable to break through Osasuna’s defence, highlighted by a VAR check on Ferran Torres in the 25th minute that came to nothing. Osasuna picked up a yellow card for Abel Bretones in the 35th minute, and made a halftime substitution with Iker Muñoz replacing Lucas Torró, but Barcelona’s pressure continued into the second half. This victory extends Barcelona’s impressive recent form, having won their last five league matches including strong performances against Real Betis and Atlético Madrid.

The breakthrough came in the 70th minute when Raphinha scored, assisted by Pedri, shortly after Osasuna’s Jon Moncayola received a yellow card in the 67th minute. Barcelona made changes around the 74th and 75th minutes, with Frenkie de Jong replacing Marcus Rashford and Fermín López coming on for Pau Cubarsí, helping to maintain control. Raphinha added a second goal in the 86th minute, sealing the win, before a triple substitution in the 88th minute saw Roony Bardghji replace Pedri, Marc Casadó come on for Raphinha, and Andreas Christensen take over from Alejandro Balde. Osasuna, who have struggled recently with losses to Real Sociedad and Sevilla, couldn’t capitalise on their mixed form that included a win over Levante and a draw with Mallorca.

Barcelona’s 80% possession underlined their control of the game, allowing them to rack up 14 corners compared to Osasuna’s single one, which pointed to sustained pressure in the attacking third. Successful dribbles were close at 53 for Barcelona and 45 for Osasuna, suggesting the visitors remained a threat on the counter despite being outplayed overall, while Barcelona’s single assist highlighted efficient build-up play leading to their goals. Discipline favoured Barcelona with no yellow cards, against Osasuna’s three, and both sides used all five substitutions, with Barcelona’s late changes in the 88th minute helping to see out the win without conceding.

The match’s turning point arrived in the 70th minute when Raphinha opened the scoring for Barcelona, assisted by Pedri, breaking Osasuna’s resistance after they had picked up yellow cards for Abel Bretones in the 35th, Iker Muñoz in the 59th, and Jon Moncayola in the 67th. Earlier, a VAR review in the 25th minute involving Ferran Torres did not result in any change, keeping the game level. Barcelona’s substitutions, including Frenkie de Jong for Marcus Rashford at 74 minutes and Fermín López for Pau Cubarsí at 75 minutes, added fresh legs, before Raphinha’s second goal in the 86th minute confirmed the result, followed by a late triple change in the 88th minute with Roony Bardghji replacing Pedri, Marc Casadó coming on for Raphinha, and Andreas Christensen taking over from Alejandro Balde. Osasuna’s changes, such as Iker Muñoz for Lucas Torró at halftime and later swaps like Rubén García for Aimar Oroz at 64 minutes, aimed to inject energy but couldn’t shift the momentum.

FC Barcelona lined up in a 4-2-3-1 formation, with Pedri playing a key role in midfield to support the attack, as seen in his assist for Raphinha’s first goal. Raphinha stood out on the wing, scoring both goals, while substitutions like Frenkie de Jong and Fermín López helped maintain partnerships in the middle and defence.

Osasuna set up in a 5-4-1 shape, focusing on a compact defence to absorb pressure, with players like Jon Moncayola in midfield picking up a yellow card during the contest. Substitutions such as Iker Muñoz and Rubén García aimed to bolster the midfield and attack, but the setup struggled against Barcelona’s dominance.

Raphinha is Bwin’s Man of the Match after his brace secured the win for Barcelona, netting twice without any assists but contributing one key pass and creating no big chances in a performance that highlighted his finishing ability.
