Malaga have stuttered yet again in La Liga as they have been held to a goalless draw by Osasuna away from home.
Francisco Portillo could have given the lead to the visitors after just four minutes when he shot on goal, but it was saved by Andres Fernandez.
Moments later Martin Demichelis headed Joaquin's cross just wide from a narrow angle, before Ignacio Camacho saw his header sail over the Osasuna crossbar.
It was not all Malaga in the first half, though, as Alvaro Cejudo and Nano came close for the home side.
Joaquín then tested Fernandez on the half-hour mark.
Osasuna began the second half the brighter of the two teams, with Kike Sola and Cejudo forcing Wilfredo Caballero into making good saves.
Alejandro Arribas then came close for the home side with a header on 55 minutes and Cejudo had another chance with seven minutes of normal time left on the clock.
