Villarreal’s dream seems to be close to coming to an end. The yellow submarine has been defeated in the first leg of the Champions League semifinals against Liverpool, in a match in which they could only stop the team net for 45 minutes. After the show of superiority of the English, few can think that the whole groguet can come back on the lap, although everything is possible.
The match began with Liverpool dominating and trying to put pressure on Villarreal, but Emery’s men managed to defend themselves and Klopp’s men were not comfortable in the rival field. Even so, the yellow submarine practically gave up attacking and except for some internees that the defense net he repelled, we didn’t see anything at an offensive level.
At the beginning of the second half, Villarreal continued with the plan, but the spaces began to appear and Liverpool did not forgive. As if that were not enough, the first goal of the Anfield team was an own goal and in the 53rd minute, which was too strong a blow.
The yellow sumbarino sank and two minutes later conceded the second and final goal of the match. Liverpool were able to score several more, while Villarreal almost took the result for granted, as they gave up attacking and left with only one shot in the match, none on target. This shows the inferiority of the groguet team against the English team, not only because Villarreal is a team one step lower than the greats of Europe, but also because Liverpool is probably one of the most complete teams in the world, and could have overwhelmed any team.
