MADRID.
The Villarreal (9th) thrashed 5-2 at Deportivo Alavés (18th) in a postponed match on the fourth day of the Spanish championship and adds three points that allow him to get into the fight to play the next edition of the Champions League.
With 25 points, the Villarreal is only six behind Rayo Vallecano, fourth closing the Champions zone.
After his bad start to the season, the team coached by Unai Emery confirmed their improvement in recent weeks, in which he has qualified for the knockout stages of the Champions League and that put him squarely in the fight for the Top 4 in LaLiga.
The forward of ‘La Roja’ Gerard Moreno opened the scoring at the start of the match (18) and the Senegalese Boulaye Dia increased the advantage for the locals on the edge of half an hour of play, but Pere Pons before the break (44) and Joselu after the hour of play (65) they tied for the Basques.
The Villarreal was able to get back into the game to solve it with goals from Day (76), of the young Yeremi Pino (79) and again from Gerard Moreno (88).
