Ferran Torres opened the scoring for Barca in the 11th minute following a cross by Alejandro Balde. Torres' goal was remarkable as it crowned a swift and precise link-up move by La Blaugrana players.

In the 18th minute, Osasuna goalkeeper Sergio Herrera brought down Dani Olmo, and Barca were awarded a penalty. Three minutes later (21’), Olmo converted the spot-kick, sending Herrera in the wrong direction, which made the scoreline 2-0.

In the 77th minute, Robert Lewandowski directed his header into the back of the net following a precise lofted pass from Fermin Lopez. Thus, the game ended 3-0 in favor of La Blaugrana.
