League leaders Barcelona were denied victory in dramatic circumstances
at Osasuna tonight as Gerard Pique put through his own net deep
into injury time to give the hosts an unexpected point.
Pique was attempting to clear after a Rafa Marquez error had let
in Javier Camunas, but the Spain defender could only divert the
ball into his own net and Barca were forced to settle for a draw
which sees their lead at the top of the Primera Division cut to
just a point after Real Madrid beat Getafe earlier in the evening.
Before that, Seydou Keita's strike midway through the second half
had looked enough to send the Catalans on their way to an eighth
victory in nine league games.
