Shojaei and Jorge Galan were influential in the attack for the hosts.
Osasuna’s best scoring chance came on the half hour when the Iranian midfielder sent a perfect through pass to Galan, but the 20-year-old striker’s effort did not beat the goalkeeper.
Three minutes after the restart, Masoud created a goal out nothing when he dribbled past four players inside the box before finding the back of the net.
While they only held a one-goal lead, Camacho’s men could never be comfortable and they had a brief scare with 15 minuts to go, but Osasuna’s defense hold on and the lone goal proved to be enough.
