Villarreal CF has made a historic achievement that has long been awaited by the Groguet club, to be a finalist in a major European competition. They have earned it with their perseverance in recent years.
The victory in the first leg of the semifinals against Arsenal, at the Estadio de la Cerámica, made the draw in the second leg enough to make it through to the final on May 26 in Gdansk, Poland. Manchester United awaits Villarreal in the final.
Therefore, a city of barely 50,000 inhabitants will be represented in a European final. Although the fans could not travel to London, the ‘JomaTeam’ felt the warmth of their supporters through social networks and activities that were prepared in Vila-real throughout the week.
At the end of the match, the players carried a banner that read “SEE YOU IN POLAND”. We wish the JomaTeam the best of luck on Wednesday, May 26th against Manchester United. Should the Yellow Submarine win the title, they would automatically qualify for the UEFA Champions League for the 21/22 season. They currently stand in sixth place in the league competition, which grants a place in the Conference League, a new European competition organized by UEFA that will be launched next season.
Congratulations!
