Villarreal Juvenil A advance to Copa del Rey semis



Our Juvenil A squad lost to Barcelona's team today 5-3 at the Mini Estadi in Barcelona, but won 6-5 on aggegate to advance to the Copa del Rey semifinals.

Fran Alvarez scored two goals and Danni Villa one; although we led 3-2 at halftime, Barca came back and a fairly awful own goal made it 4-3, then with 15 minutes to go it was 5-3. However, Villarreal held firm and in a wide-open game, had chances to score another goal themselves in extra time, but were denied. In the end it didn't matter.

This match was played on the fourth anniversary of Villarreal's first team's match in the Mini Estadi before thousands of Villarrela fans. We won that match 3-0 in the penultimate game of the season.
