PAMPLONA, Spain (AP) -Malaga stayed in the final Champions League qualifying spot in Spain after coming from behind to draw 1-1 draw at Osasuna on Monday following Santi Cazorla's second-half goal.

The Spain midfielder curled a shot from outside the area beyond diving goalkeeper Andres Fernandez in the 67th minute at Reyna de Navarro stadium.

An errant pass by Malaga goalkeeper Carlos Kameni in the 53rd allowed Alvaro Cejudo to cross for Juan "Nino'' Martinez to head into the net at the far post.

Malaga was twice denied by the goal-frame but remains in fourth place, three points above closest chaser Levante. Osasuna moved within a point of sixth spot and the last Europa League berth.
