The Yellows boss praised his side’s dominance and experience showed against Levante UD
Villarreal manager, Unai Emery, spoke to the media after this aftenoon’s derby win against Levante UD (2-1): “Today’s victory lifts our morale and makes us more optimistic ahead of our upcoming games. Levante are a great side with quality and speed up front, who pressure well. By taking the ball off them we gave ourselves a good chance to win and the match went that way for the most part.”
In addition to the Yellows’ good display, the boss also praised the experience shown by his players in the final moments of the game: “We had 20 minutes where it was in our hands to go 3-0 up, but we couldn’t materialise the chances and then it went to 2-1, which brought doubts. We had chances to finish off the game but we didn’t convert them. In general, I’m very happy with the win.”
