Depor back with a win

The Galicians were relegated in 2010-11 but bounced back at the first time of asking under Jose Luis Oltra and began their 2012-13 campaign at the Riazor against Osasuna.

A balanced first period saw Riki miss a penalty shortly before half-time to see the sides go in level, but forward soon made amends, netting the opening goal of the game seven minutes into the second half.

Summer signing Nelson Oliveira then made an early impression in front of the home crowd with a smartly-taken second, lifting the ball over the ‘keeper after a counter-attack, to finish the game 2-0 to Depor.
