LaLiga: Ancelotti reacts as Real Madrid loses top spot to Barcelona after Osasuna draw

Real Madrid manager, Carlo Ancelotti, refused to blame Karim Benzema following their 1-1 draw with Osasuna on Sunday.

Benzema missed the chance to hand Los Blancos all three points as he blasted a late penalty off the crossbar.

Vinicius Jr had given the LaLiga champions the lead, before Kike Garcia equalized in the second half.

Failure to get three points saw Real drop to second place behind rivals Barcelona on goals difference.

"We deserved the win but we missed a penalty. It's normal, setbacks happen. This is football," Ancelotti told reporters.

"Benzema has done his part, he had the penalty chance after a very good play but missed it. It's an accident that sometimes happens. We have to move forward."
