This Friday is the round of 16 of European Leaguewith the Villarreal as the only Spanish representative. The yellow team was given a rival with certain morbidity: the Olympique de Marseille who soon trained a Marcelino García who was burned from there.
It should be noted that the Asturian coach, who has been on the Villarreal bench for four seasons (2012-16), left the Ligue 1 club due to problems with the French team’s ultras. In fact, the most radical fans stormed the club’s headquarters demanding the resignation of the coaching staff and the club ended up giving in to this pressure.
The first leg matches, which will be played at home to the first in the pot, will be played on March 7, while the second leg is the following week, on the 14th. Liverpool (Sparta Prague) and Xabi Alonso’s Leverkusen (Qarabag) have been lucky with more than affordable rivals.
