Villarreal CF History
|
Villarreal Club de Futbol,
sometimes abbreviated to Villarreal, is a Spanish Primera
Division football club based in Villarreal, a small suburb of
Castellón de la Plana. They play at the 26,000 seater El
Madrigal stadium. Their famous rivals are Valencia CF and their
derbies are one of the most exciting in the Primera Liga. They
achieved something of a proud moment as they played the semi-final
of the UEFA Cup for 2003/2004, however, losing to their more
illustrious neighbor who went on to win the Cup. They have been
a regular fixture in the Primera Liga for many years and have
recently signed Uruguayan striker Diego Forlán. Their squad has
also been bolstered with the presence of South American talents
like Juan Pablo Sorin, Juan Roman Riquelme as well as former
Spain striker José Mari.
Their home uniform is yellow shirt, blue shorts and blue socks.
They are nicknamed the los submarinos amarillos (the yellow
submarines) because of their yellow shirts. Their mascot is a
figure with a submarine head. |
