Villarreal CF U12s, after finishing top of their group yesterday, were knocked out in the Round of 16 of the Pamesa LALIGA FC Futures National Tournament by Deportivo Alavés. Despite being the better side during normal time, the Yellows were beaten 5-6 on penalties.
In the first half, Juanma Blasco’s side created several dangerous chances led by David Akchouaa, Daniel Jaén and David Kazakov, but lacked finishing in front of goal.
