Villarreal manager Unai Emery has praised Samuel Chukwueze and his teammates following the side’s 2-0 win against Real Valladolid in their LaLiga clash at the Estadio La Ceramica on Monday night, reports Completesports.com.
Chukwueze opened scoring for the Yellow Submarine in the 21st minute of the encounter.
It was the 21-year-old’s first league goal since November 2019.

“The game had different moments. In the first half we controlled the game as we wanted, reaching their area in danger. Furthermore, we conceded very little to the rival,”Emery told the club website.
“In the second half we progressively lost punch, although we continued to create chances. Valladolid also had chances and that made us have some doubts. In general, we are very satisfied and we deserved to win.”
Chukwueze was replaced by Takefusa Kubo in the 63rd minute.
Villarreal now occupy third position on the table with 15 points from eight games.
Emery’s men will take on Isreali club Maccabi Tel-Aviv in a Europa League game on Thursday.

Great one from chukwueze keep it up. Improve your game. Score goals.
Has anyone heard about this guy “NONI MADUEKE” his style is similar to chukwueze’s with a little difference, check him out!
Checked Noni, looks like now he is a better version of a RW than Chukuweze with due respect.Chukuweze tries to much when he plays for Nigeria as oppose when he plays for Villareal as he likes getting an assist.
@Sportsfan as you know I am one of Sammy’s biggest Advocates on this forum and I can say his game is improving game by game all he needed to do was add the goals to it, as we know he is assist master. and oh boy you can see what the goal meant to him when the net bulged!! the boy is Focused! 100% and man he is a big Talent.
That is why when people on Forum leave him on the bench in their key board line up naso i just dey scratch my head dey laugh.
