Elche took the lead just before the half-time break, through Tete Morente. It took until the 71st minute before Ez Abde equalized for Osasuna.
And with six minutes left to play, the game-deciding goal came through Ez Abde. Abde thus completed the team’s turnaround.
Osasuna has one win, two draws and two losses and 2-5 on goal difference in the last five matches, while Elche has one win, one draw and three losses and 3-9 on goal difference. This was Osasuna’s eighth odd-goal win this season. The loss was also Elche’s ninth odd-goal loss.
In the next round, Osasuna have Rayo Vallecano away at the Estadio de Vallecas, Friday 14 April 21:00. Elche plays away to Girona on Sunday 16 April 14.00.
