Manchester United loanee Facundo Pellistri got on the score sheet as his side, Granada, secured a La Liga win against Osasuna.
Granada headed into the match full of confidence following their previous win against Alaves before they went on to earn a valuable point vs. Athletic Club.
Jose Ramon Sandoval’s men took advantage of their momentum and successfully sunk Osasuna in a 3-0 victory on Sunday at Estadio Nuevo Los Carmenes.
Alongside Pellistri, Myrto Uzuni and Lucas Boye also grabbed goals to clinch the points for Granada.
Pellistri shed first blood at the half-hour mark in spectacular fashion. The Uruguayan, who started on his favoured right side of a 4-4-2 formation, positioned himself well to receive a pass just inside the Osasuna box.
He took a sublime touch to get past his marker and create some shooting space for himself before firing a powerful effort with his right foot into the roof of Sergio Herrera’s net.
¡GOL DE GRANADA! 🔴⚪

Pellistri’s strike set the tone for Granada, who despite having significantly less possession than their opponents, proved clinical as they made their goalscoring chances account.
The United loanee was on the pitch for 80 minutes before being taken off and replaced by Gonzalo Villar.
Pellistri had 22 touches of the ball to his name and successfully delivered nine of the 12 total passes he attempted. He had a pass completion rate of 75%.
The South American winger tried to find a Granada teammate with one cross but he didn’t hit his mark on that occasion.
The 22-year-old had two total shots to his name – the goal he scored and another which was off-target and didn’t require the Osasuna goalkeeper to swing into action.
An area of his play in which Pellistri was very poor was defensively. He won none of the seven ground duels he delved into and also none of the two aerial contests he was required to contest.
Pellistri also failed to make an interception or put in a successful tackle. He managed just one clearance.

Granda’s next assignment is a difficult one – a trip to the Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán Stadium to face Sevilla.
