Unai Emery underlined that Villarreal knew how to adapt to the demands to the game to get the win
Villarreal head coach Unai Emery appeared in front of the media to analyse the Yellows’ win over Young Boys (1-4) at the Wankdorf Stadium. “We wanted to be competitive and we were. We came to Bern to face a team that demand a lot of you, a team that had beaten Manchester United here. They’re a quick team down the wings, with the capacity to put balls down the flanks. We went ahead early on, scoring two goals, but that wasn’t a definitive lead. There were capable of cutting our lead, and then we reacted well by scoring two goals and getting the win.”
Emery hailed his side’s ability to adapt to the needs of the game, and to get the win: “They’re a team who are very rich tactically, and change up how they line up a lot. They know how to have the ball, but they can also play on the counter depending on what the game needs. We knew how to be competitive and to have different registers. We found responses to their strengths to get the win.”
