About Villarreal FC
Villarreal CF, or more frequently Villarreal, is a Spanish football club playing in La Liga, the first tier of Spanish football with its home games in the El Madrigal stadium. Vila-real is a city in the province of Castellón in Valencia. Villarreal is not one of Spain’s fashionable clubs, such as Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid or Barcelona, but is rather a small and attractive club.
Villarreal had a very humble beginning in 1923. Stadium rent was 60 pesetas a month and admission was half a peseta for men and a quarter for children. For the first 40 years of the club’s existence, games were played only in regional competitions and it was not until 1970 that Villarreal reached the national Second Division. Having narrowly avoided relegation in its first season, the club hit the downward path in 1972-3 relegated as far as the regional leagues.
It was not until the 1990s that a more positive set of results saw Villarreal become regularly established in the Second Division. For many seasons their final ranking was mid-table or worse but in 1997-98 Villarreal reached the playoffs by finishing fourth and gained promotion over Compostela by gist of the away goals rule over two legs.
In 1996-97 Villarreal reached the top tier, La Liga, for the first time. An initial seventh place was followed by two 15 places. By 2004 the club finished in third place in La Liga, earning its first direct qualification to a European tournament, the Champions League. The club's center-forward Diego Forlán won the Pichichi Trophy for top scorer in the league, with 25 goals.
The 2007-08 season saw Villarreal earn their best ever place in La Liga by finishing second. That saw them in 2008-9 with a direct qualification for the Champions League, pitting themselves against teams such as Manchester United, Celtic and Panathinaikos, whom they beat in the knock-out stage. They reached the quarter-finals where they went down to Arsenal on a 4-1 aggregate.
There were more European adventures in the Europa league in 2010-11 where they advanced all the way up to the semi-finals before being downed by Porto, who went on to win the trophy.
Villarreal experienced relegation again at the end of 2011-12 but managed to bounce straight back with a second place to start the 2013 campaign back in La Liga where they enjoyed a successful season finishing 6, a position which was repeated in 2014-15.
After 2 UEFA Intertoto Cup wins in 2003, 2004, Villareal went on to win the 2020-21 EUFA Europa Cup, after beating Manchester United 11-10 in what is one of the longest penalties shoutouts in European history.
The “Yellow Submarine” plays its home matches in 23,500-seat Estadio de la Cerámica, known as “El Madrigal”. The club’s all-time appearance leader is Bruno Soriano with 425 matches that spanned over 14 seasons. The club’s all-time goal scorer is Gerard Moreno, who scored 83 goals, and counting
