Promoted Villarreal suffered a first defeat on their return to La Liga when they fell 1-0 at Real Betis on Sunday, missing out on the chance to move into third place.
.
The team known as the Yellow Submarine had won four games and drawn two, including holding Real Madrid 2-2, after spending last season in the second division.
.
They struggled in Seville, however, and Betis forward Nosa scored the game's only goal after 36 minutes when keeper Sergio Asenjo could only parry Joan Verdu's shot and Nosa put away the loose ball.
.
Asenjo kept the visitors in the game with a couple of smart saves and their coach Marcelino was sent off for protesting after the referee waved away a penalty appeal in the dying minutes.
Villareal Football Club can surely bounce back if they believe. They have the players to do the job for thm. Good one!
