Raúl García saw the goal again in Villarreal. The Navarrese footballer, who formed up front alongside Iñaki Williams while Sancet was on the bench, managed to beat Asenjo very close to half-time. A goal with suspense, since Del Cerro Grande signaled offside in the first instance and corrected it on the fly after receiving the pertinent communication from the VOR room. Muniain, it is true, had a lot to do with this.
This goal became Raúl García’s sixth so far this season: five in the League and one in the Cup. His last goal in the so-called domestic tournament dates back to February 14 when he beat Mallorca’s goal in a match that ended with a 3-2 vermilion victory. Four days before, in the KO tournament, he had scored the goal for Athletic in San Mamés in the first leg of the semifinal against Valencia.
Villarreal, by the way, had also been one of his victims in Bilbao. To the two goals against the yellows are added those achieved against Alavés and Granada at home and the aforementioned against Mallorca.
