The Yellow Submarine continues its preparation for the upcoming campaign, which kicks off in three weeks. In their encounter against PSV Eindhoven, Villarreal showed solidity at the Philips Stadion of the Dutch team.
Íñigo Pérez's team controlled possession and created numerous scoring opportunities, although their finishing was not particularly sharp during the first half and much of the second. The yellow submarine's persistence paid off when Mikautadze opened the scoring well into the second half with a great individual play.
Shortly after, Cheikh extended the lead by finishing a cross from Thiago Fernández on the left.
As a result of PSV pushing forward, the visiting goalkeeper made an error, allowing the Dutch side to reduce the deficit. However, Villarreal sealed the match with a final goal from Pau Cabanes, who pressed and stole the ball from the local goalkeeper to secure the victory.
