Events
Match Events
- 0' Packed stands, loud atmosphere — Villarreal CF and UD Las Palmas get this one started.
- 5' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.
- 10' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
- 15' Denmark international Filip Jorgensen has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
- 20' The travelling UD Las Palmas supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 25' 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 Maximo Perrone suffering a number of foals already.
- 30' Alfonso Pedraza has been relatively quiet despite scoring 13 goals in his last 423 appearances.
- 35' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Villarreal CF side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
- 40' UD Las Palmas seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
- 45' Yeremy is having his name booked by the referee on 45.
- 46' Jose Morales is ready to make an impact after coming on for Yeremy at the 46 minute mark.
- 47' Saul Coco has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 45 minutes.
- 51' A goal from the Spain international Marc Cardona! He fires home on 51 to make it 0-2!
- 56' UD Las Palmas is showing some good football. However, UD Las Palmas are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 58' A tactical swap from UD Las Palmas — Sory Kaba on, Marc Cardona off on 58 minutes.
- 60' Villarreal CF make a change. Ben Brereton trudges off to be replaced by Kiko Femenia on 60 minutes.
- 65' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
- 66' Ilias Akhomach is ready to make an impact after coming on for Raul Albiol at the 66 minute mark.
- 68' Dani Parejo was booked on 68.
- 72' Kirian Rodriguez is having his name booked by the referee on 72.
- 75' The supporters are chanting for Jorge Cuenca. He replaces Juan Foyth on 75 minute.

- 88' Time for substitution for UD Las Palmas. Munir El Haddadi is replaced by Cristian Herrera.
- 90' The referee does not hesitate — a Yellow card for Sergi Cardona on 90 minutes.
