Barcelona dominated possession throughout the match, but they struggled to break down Osasuna's defense for much of the game. Raphinha's goal came in the 85th minute, when he was picked out by a cross from Frenkie de Jong.

The Brazilian forward made no mistake with his header, powering the ball into the top corner of the net. It was Raphinha's first goal for Barcelona since joining the club from Leeds United in the summer.

The win takes Barcelona back to the top of the La Liga table, one point ahead of Real Madrid. Osasuna, meanwhile, remain in ninth place.
