Granada 0-Villarreal 3 | Gerard Moreno dances in Los Cármenes

The reunion of Diego Martínez and Emery was decided by the fast track Gerard Moreno, one of the best players in the championship who in just over an hour signed his first hat-trick in the First Division and tore apart a Granada that continues to make waters in defense in the League (49 goals conceded) and that he keeps his gaze fixed on the Europa League.

The initial push from Granada was cut in the bud after six minutes Cuadra Fernández and Hernández Hernández, his adviser in the VAR, with the signaling of a penalty that one more match calls into question the effectiveness of video refereeing and the questionable judgment of all those around him. The penalty by Víctor Díaz, completely involuntary and conditioned in his gesture by his jump with Pau Torres, aborted all the rojiblancas intentions and served as a springboard to Gerard Moreno's show.

The yellow striker signed a sublime match and He finished the meeting with a masterful cut that ended with Germán on the ground and with a definition of carats. Beyond the doubts generated by the initial penalty, Villarreal's superiority from start to finish was indisputable. Rubén Peña and Pedraza gave a recital for both bands, Parejo and Trigueros ruled the game with an iron hand in the core and Granada was not able to find a single answer.

Gerard Moreno's dance in Los Cármenes began and ended from the penalty spot. The second maximum penalty, committed by Rui Silva on Trigueros, was indisputable. Once the 0-3 is consummated, Diego Martínez and Emery limited themselves to moving the chips very aware of what awaits them next Thursday in the Europa League. Jorge Molina provoked and had another maximum penalty to make up the scoreboard, but He fired at the clouds and dispelled with his erratic shot any threat of reaction.
