Champions League fixtures and results
It only took 33 seconds for Dušan Vlahović to score in his first Champions League match!
Launched in depth, the Serbian striker perfectly takes the ball from Danilo, before getting rid of the opposing central defense and deceiving Geronimo Rulli with a shot from the right foot.
He was the most dangerous attacker, the one who provoked the most.
Very mobile, he is constantly occupying Raul Albiol and Pau Torres who tightly squeezed him at the mark.
At the very end of the game (85th), the former Fiorentina could have given the advantage to his team thanks to a good pivot shot with the left foot.
The kid wants it and was not afraid for his premiere in Europe.

Capua is everywhere
The French midfielder was in the oven and in the mill this Tuesday evening at the Estadio de La Cerámica.
Present in the recovery but also in the projection, Étienne Capoue delivered a match to the N'Golo Kanté.
The Frenchman was able to raise his level of play, alongside a more timid Daniel Parejo.
He was also decisive since he is the one who made the last pass on his team's goal.
A sumptuous opening in the 66th minute, which concludes perfectly... Daniel Parejo.
His midfield friend left strangely alone by the Old Lady.

FLOPS
Danjuma passes by
On paper, everything predicted a difficult match for Arnaut Danjuma.
Winger by nature, he is aligned at the forefront next to a Giovanni Lo Celso, lower on the ground.
Alone in the center to carry out his attacks, the Dutchman had to face three central defenders in front of him.
The 25-year-old completely missed his game, rarely being found by his partners.
In the first half, he was alone in the area and his teammates were unable to cross.
When his team suffered, he remained very high on the ground.
Definitely too high.
A Villarreal team cut in half.
His pressing did not particularly highlight him either.
Arnaud Danjuma ends this match with a shot on target, in the first half of a good heel, and "only" eight lost balls.

Refereeing that plays big on the match
Daniel Siebert was also not on his plate at the Estadio de La Cerámica.
The German referee often let play, maybe a little too much.
Regularly players remained on the ground as the game continued.
He often left the advantage when he had no reason to be.
But above all, after the hour mark, he only reprimands Raul Albiol, guilty of a voluntary stampede on Dušan Vlahović, without sanctioning him.
A few minutes later, Villarreal equalized when a foul seemed to have been committed at the start of the action.
The Bianconeri almost gave the impression of having stopped playing on the action.
Finally, his most glaring mistake, also to be blamed on the video assistance.
In the 72nd minute, Adrien Rabiot is guilty of
a seemingly light sole on Samuel Chukwueze.
A priori only since the slow motion shows that the French crushes - involuntarily - his foot on the knee of his opponent.
Daniel Siebert only sanctions with a yellow card, the VAR does not call him.
While the players gathered around the referee, the latter, certainly touched in his ego, sent a yellow card to Geronimo Rulli, who had come to complain.
The referee took a long time to penalize Adrien Rabiot, leaving the players to gather and the tension to rise.
Fortunately, Samuel Chukwueze was able to get up and continue playing.
