Villarreal have been one of the teams affected most by Storm DANA. Last weekend, their La Liga fixture against Rayo Vallecano was called off, after the Spanish Football Federation decided that no matches in the Valencia community, where the worst of the devastation has been, would be played.
Villarreal manager Marcelino Garcia Toral could not hold back the tears on Sunday night, after his side secured a point against Athletic Club in stoppage time via a Dani Parejo penalty.
Villarreal veteran Dani Parejo has become the latest footballer to criticise Vinicius Junior’s attitude on the pitch, after he was asked about the Brazilian.
Villarreal have struggled massively so far this season. They have already parted ways with two managers (Quique Setien and Pacheta), with Marcelino Garcia Toral now back in charge of the club he was at the helm of between 2013 and 2016.
