Events
Match Events
- 0' The game is set. Villarreal CF kicks off things out of here…
- 2' That is a Yellow card for Real Sociedad de Futbol. Mikel Merino will be fuming at that decision.
- 7' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Alberto Moreno suffering a number of foals already.
- 12' The home supporters are growing impatient. Villarreal CF must find a spark to ignite this game.
- 17' The travelling Real Sociedad de Fútbol supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 22' Fernando Nino has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 8 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 27' The 29-year-old Robin Le Normand has been sensational this season — 2 goals and 1 assists is a remarkable return.
- 32' Villarreal CF started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 32.
- 35' Poor challenge from Javier Ontiveros. The referee spots it immediately and shows the Yellow card.
- 36' Trigueros catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. Yellow card on 36.
- 41' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 46' Villarreal CF make a change. Fernando Nino trudges off to be replaced by Samuel Chukwueze on 46 minutes.
- 51' Pau Torres has been relatively quiet despite scoring 18 goals in his last 415 appearances.
- 53' The Real Sociedad de Futbol manager makes a substitution. Ander Barrenetxea departs to be replaced by Portu.
- 58' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
- 61' The Brazil Willian Jose breaks the deadlock on 61 minutes. 0-1!
- 62' The whistle greets Moi Gomez as he departs to be replaced by Bruno.
- 65' Real Sociedad de Futbol make a change. Martin Odegaard trudges off to be replaced by Igor Zubeldia on 65 minutes.
