JOSE Mourinho was under more pressure on Saturday when misfiring Real Madrid was held to a 0-0 draw at relegation-threatened Osasuna, a result which left the champion 15 points behind leader Barcelona.
Real, devoid of any creativity, missed the suspended Cristiano Ronaldo, who had scored five of his side's eight goals in the last two games, and its desperate state was highlighted when substitute Kaka was sent-off in the second half. Real Madrid is on 37 points in third place, four behind Atletico Madrid and it could trail Barcelona by 18 points if the Catalans beat fifth-place Malaga.
"I liked my team's attitude, Raul Albiol and Fabio Coentrao have come in and played well and the others have done a job. It's not easy to create here, we did enough to score but we didn't make many chances," said Mourinho.
The Portuguese coach was questioned about captain Iker Casillas, who he recently controversially dropped, but refused to say if the goalkeeper would be in the team on Tuesday against Valencia in the Copa del Rey. "Casillas has done well in the last two games and we have been good defensively but it's too early to say whether he'll be playing against Valencia," said Mourinho.
