CD Tenerife v Osasuna

18,000 spectators 13/09/2009. Tenerife’s 1st home game of the new season in La Liga BBVA. It’s a 4p.m ko in a balmy 29c. CDT are in great sprit and are looking for an important home win.
 Both teams creating chances in the 1st half but neither converting into any goals.
  Just at the start of the 2nd half Nino slots one in 1-0, to be followed shortly by Pandiani 1-1, but with 2 sending’s off for Osasuna it is not long before Ricardo fires a 30 meter bullet 2-1 CDT, and so the score remained.
