Osasuna are out of the UEFA cup after failing to overcome a first leg deficit against Stade Rennes, their 0-0 draw falling well short of what they needed to turn the scoreline around. Javier Aguirre put out an attacking side with Milosevic and Webó up front, but they were unable to make any headway against a side who had come to Pamplona to defend their lead. And in fact the only two chances in the first half fell to the visitors, Utaka and Didot failing to take advantage of crosses by Monterrubio.

Aguirre brought on Valdo for Sosa at the break, and that brightened up their ideas. Raúl García went close and Webó brought a good save out of Isaksson, and the Camerooni striker almost gave his side the lead when he headed a corner against the post. But the French side were also causing problems on the breakaway, and Monterrubio hit the post himself a few minutes later. In the end though Osasuna ran out of time, and Rennes held on to qualify for the second round league stage.
