In the 13th round of La Liga, Villarreal confidently won against Mallorca with a score of 2:1. The match took place at the Estadio de la Cerámica and began at 22:00 Kyiv time.
Villarreal player Gerard Moreno opened the scoring in the sixth minute, but Mallorca quickly responded, leveling the score with a goal from Samu Costa in the eighth minute. The teams played a competitive first half, but neither could gain the lead.
After the break, Villarreal took the initiative, and in the 83rd minute, Tani Olowaseyi scored a fantastic goal that secured victory for his team. This goal marked an important milestone for Villarreal's season, as the club achieved its best start in La Liga history – 29 points from a possible 39.
