Crosses were also a big part of the game plan—33 were attempted by Villarreal, with 7 finding their intended teammate, while Oviedo struggled to get just 4 crosses through, only 1 of which was successful.
Defensively, Villarreal’s organization shone through as well. The home team made 9 tackles and 21 clearances, maintaining composure even under pressure from Oviedo. Oviedo matched Villarreal closely in terms of tackles and fouls, with 8 tackles and 8 fouls conceded, but they were simply outnumbered and outmaneuvered when it came to controlling the game.

Discipline was mostly maintained throughout the match. Each side picked up just one yellow card, and no red cards were issued, showing that while Villarreal pressed aggressively, it was done within the rules. The flow of the game favored Villarreal at nearly every turn, from possession and passing to attacking chances and defensive solidity.
