Atlético de Madrid regains the lead with the victory of Osasuna

Sunday’s La Liga schedule was heavily affected by the Spanish Super Cup with only two games on the schedule.

However, with their title rivals in Saudi Arabia, Atlético Madrid took full advantage to claim a 1-0 home win over Osasuna.

That returns Los Rojiblancos to the top of the table as Getafe claimed a late victory at Las Palmas.

This is how Sunday’s games unfolded…

Las Palmas 1-2 Getafe

Getafe moved away from the relegation zone thanks to their first league victory of the campaign away from home in Gran Canaria.

Neither team created much in a quiet first half. Fabio Silva was disallowed from the penalty spot and Cobá Gómez da Costa Getafe headed to the front.

Da Costa then became provider in the closing stages, to tee off to Borja Mayoral, before Adnan Januzaj provided a superb late consolation for the hosts.

Atlético de Madrid 1-0 Osasuna

Atlético Madrid maintained its share of the title race with a maiden victory in the 2025 league.

Three points not only return them to the top of the standings. It also sets a fantastic new club record of 14 consecutive wins in all competitions.

Talisman Antonio Griezmann saw an early goal disallowed by VAR before Julian Alvarez It was denied before the break in the Spanish capital.

However, when Osasuna tried to reinforce their defense after the restart, Álvarez reacted quicker to a loose ball in a corner and scored his sixth league goal of 2024/25.

With all teams now tied at the top of the table, at mid-season, with 19 games played, Atlético de Madrid are one point ahead of rivals Real Madrid.

The league leaders will take a break in the Copa del Rey in midweek, in Elche on January 15, before a local derby against Leganés three days later.
