For the 16th round of the King’s Cup, Villarreal crushed the Cartagena team this Tuesday, January 3, 2022. The score was 1-5 at the final whistle. The Yellow Submarine was able to count on its Africans for the occasion.
Not everything went well for Villarreal at the start of the game. Cartagena opened the scoring following 39 minutes through Vazquez Perez. Led at the break, the Yellow Submarine took things in hand with the achievements of Baena (49th), Danjuma (56th) and Morales (61st).
At 1-3, Villarreal had already clearly ensured their qualification. But the show was far from over. On an assist from Senegalese Nicolas Jackson, Nigerian Samuel Chukwueze scored the Yellow Submarine’s fourth goal in the 85th minute. The festival ends with a final production by Etienne Capoue (90th).
At 1-5, Villarreal validates its ticket for the knockout stages of the King’s Cup. It’s better than the previous season when he was knocked out in the round of 16 by Sporting Gijon (2-1).
