Real Madrid hosted Osasuna amidst criticism for their poor form. The "Los Blancos" suffered two consecutive defeats against Barcelona (0-4) and AC Milan (1-3). Even more significantly, both losses occurred at the Bernabeu, a result Real Madrid hadn't experienced since 2009.
But with a superior squad, Real Madrid easily defeated Osasuna 4-0. Vinicius, who had just missed out on the European Golden Ball, shone brightly with a hat-trick in the 31st, 64th, and 69th minutes. The remaining goal for "Los Blancos" in this match was scored by Jude Bellingham (42nd minute). Real Madrid now have 27 points, ranking second in La Liga, 6 points behind leaders Barcelona.
Vinicius (number 7) and Bellingham secured the victory for Real Madrid.
However, Real Madrid paid a heavy price in terms of their squad after the victory against Osasuna. In the first half alone, Carlo Ancelotti's team had to make two substitutions due to injuries to Rodrygo and Eder Militao. In the first case, Rodrygo was diagnosed with a muscle injury and had to leave the field in the 20th minute. This was quite unfortunate for the Brazilian player, who had only returned to the pitch a few days earlier. Rodrygo even shed tears as he left the field, showing his disappointment.
As for Eder Militao, the Real Madrid center-back suffered a left knee injury and had to leave the field in the 30th minute. Marca revealed that Eder Militao's injury is somewhat more serious than Rodrygo's. A year ago, Eder Militao suffered a similar injury and was sidelined for a considerable period.
However, Real Madrid's nightmare didn't end there. At the start of the second half, Lucas Vázquez also had to be replaced by Luka Modric due to injury. Before leaving the field, Lucas Vázquez had played through the pain throughout the first half. Including Lucas Vázquez's case, Real Madrid has suffered 24 injuries since the beginning of the 2024-2025 season.
Real Madrid have suffered three more injuries.
Not only are Real Madrid facing squad problems, but tensions in the dressing room show no signs of easing. After the 1-3 defeat against AC Milan in the Champions League, Mbappe admitted he was unhappy because coach Ancelotti was playing him out of position, which negatively impacted his performance. Despite this, the Italian coach still fielded Mbappe as the furthest forward in Real Madrid's attack against Osasuna.
As expected, Mbappe delivered a disappointing performance despite playing the full 90 minutes. The French star neither scored nor assisted, receiving the lowest rating among Real Madrid's attackers. After the match, Mbappe went straight into the tunnel, visibly angry, and even refused to shake hands with coach Ancelotti.
Coach Ancelotti deployed Mbappe as the furthest forward player, but he continued his lackluster performance.
Besides Mbappe, two other young Real Madrid players, Arda Güler and Endrick, have also expressed their disappointment at not being given opportunities by coach Ancelotti. Since the start of the 2024-2025 season, Arda Güler has only played 307 minutes, and Endrick has played even less, with a mere 112 minutes. This has caused concern among Real Madrid's management regarding the development and form of these two young players.
Even hours before the match against Osasuna, many members of Real Madrid's management admitted surprise that Arda Güler and Endrick had played so little.
