Real Madrid have closed the gap down on Barcelona to five points in the LaLiga title race
Real Madrid manager a 2-0 away win over Osasuna in their latest LaLiga clash. Los Blancos are now trailing league leaders Barcelona by five points, having played one more game than Xavi's side.
After the game, midfielder Fede Valverde, who scored the opener for Los Blancos, said (via the club's official website);
"We knew it was a tough game. They always fight until the end on their home turf. They always look for long balls and sometimes it's hard to find space. As the minutes went by, the fatigue of the numerous games we've played this season also began to take their toll.
"I think the goal I scored opened up the game and that's when we found the spaces a lot more. We are happy with all the work from our teammates and for the humility they displayed in the match. We knew it was very difficult and we knew how to suffer together."
