Liga: beaten by Las Palmas, Villarreal continues its nightmarish start to the season

We are a long way from Villarreal 2022/2023 which was close to the top five in the championship. Faced with Las Palmas this Sunday on the occasion of the 9th day of La Liga, the Yellow Submarine fell again (1-2). Surprised by a goal from Saul Coco just before the break (1-0, 45+2nd), Pacheta’s players gave in again upon returning from the locker room on a penalty from Cardona (2-0, 51st).

At the end of the match, Gerard Moreno still reduced the gap in the score with a pass from former Barcelona player Akhomach (2-1, 90+2nd). But insufficient to hope for anything. With this new setback, Villarreal remains mired in 16th place in La Liga and has not won in five league games. Las Palmas is 10th.
