For once, Karim Benzema was not the main architect of a victory for Real Madrid.

His team won well on Wednesday night in Osasuna (1-3) but the goals were scored by David Alaba, Marco Asensio and Lucas Vazquez.

The French striker meanwhile missed two penalties in seven minutes (52nd and 59th).

Or rather, he saw his two attempts nicely diverted by Sergio Herrera, the goalkeeper of the Pamplona club, who each time lay well on his right.

David Alaba, released at the break on Wednesday evening, could miss these shocks, the first leg of which will take place on Tuesday in England.
