Qantas Socceroo striker John Aloisi earned Osasuna its second successive three points in the Spanish Primera Liga, with a last minute goal in its 3-2 win over Villarreal.
Aloisi (pictured right) raced onto a pass from Pablo Garcia, with a minute of normal time remaining, firing home an unstoppable shot. It was Aloisi-s sixth goal of the season and came on the back of his solo effort last weekend that gave Osasuna a win over Atletico Madrid.
The goal and three points has lifted Osasuna back into UEFA Cup calculations, albeit slim, after free-falling towards relegation in the first two months of 2005.
In other matches overnight, Parma, minus Qantas Socceroo midfielders Mark Bresciano and Vince Grella, played out a 0-0 draw at home against CSKA Moscow in the semi finals (first leg) of the UEFA Cup.
