Osasuna-Real Madrid, time for dreaming!

Good afternoon, dear Osasunists! We are a few hours ahead from a long waited game and Osasuna is in the best situation in the classification to receive one of the most desired rivals in La Liga: the leader! The team from the capital of the actual kingdom of Spain is visiting us and they know they are one of the most hatred teams in El Sadar ( this is one of the moments I most hate the change of the stadium name ). Besides, the rival is also concerned of their game and the short distance from their main rival: Barça! If Osasuna win the white team, what is something possible, La Liga will be very interesting for the final games, as the actual leader must visit difficult stadiums like El Sadar, Vicente Calderón and San Mamés, and of course, the Camp Nou in Barcelona. The "Portuguese" team still think they may make a historical mark if the victory is in their side tonight, after 19 win matches this season, including European competitions. There is a sense in the Spanish kingdom capital that it is an easy game for them, and they didn't have to make a hard effort in their match this week against Apoel from Nicosia ( 0-3 ) in the Champions League. Most of the possible kickoff players had time to rest and even one of the least used players in that team like Nuri Sahin had a chance to play last Tuesday. But La Liga is different. There are team with similar levels and though the mass media try to concentrate the championship in only two teams, like a Second Division Liga and no the so called Liga de Las Estrellas, Osasuna is capable to beat any powerful team as they showed against the best team in the world with the best player of the world, Barça and Leo Messi. We must remember that there are some players who can't play this evening after last round in La Liga. Pepe, the killer, is sanctioned and a young player like Rafael Varane is taking over. Kedhira is injured and Xabi Alonso and Sahin are back to play together. The coach may think for a skillful player like Kaká or a hardworking like Coentrao. What is undoubtable is that the two area killers will be in the kickoff team: Benzema and CR7. On the other hand, Osasuna is in a good moment too. We play in our stadium with our supporters, who are pushing their team in each moment and giving a sense of fear to the rival team. We got the desired target: keeping our side in First Division, and it is time to surprise the rivals, the mass media and the home supporters and win an always over prouded team. There is an enormous trust on Osasuna's coach, Mendilibar, who will be on the beach next season again, as he signed a new year contract this week. It has nothing to do with any revenge as they try to sell from the capital. The "Reds" lost in the first leg with a huge score in the white stadium, but it happened the same in the Camp Nou, and Osasuna were able to beat Barça in El Sadar. YES, WE CAN! It is the cry we need to bear in mind and we did last year ( 1-0 ). Perhaps the situation is different, for both. Osasuna isn't at all pressed by the classification, but " the whites" are. Kickoff teams Osasuna: Andrés Fernández; Damià, Sergio, Miguel Flaño, Roversio; Puñal, Nekounam; Cejudo, Raúl García, Nino; Lekic. Real Madrid: Casillas; Arbeloa, Varane, Sergio Ramos, Marcelo; Khedira, Xabi Alonso, Coentrao or Kaká; Özil, Cristiano Ronaldo and Benzema. Referee: Muñiz Fernández. Stadium: EL SADAR ( Reyno de Navarra ). AUPA ROJILLOS! GORA OSASUNA!
