Chukwueze scores in Villarreal loss

Nigeria international Samuel Chukwueze was on target but Villarreal lost 2-1 away to Alaves in a La Liga game staged at Mendizorroza in Vitoria-Gasteiz on Saturday.

The winger has been in good form for the Yellow Submarine in the last couple of games, and it explains why coach Unai Emery started him on the right flank.

The first meaningful contribution for Chukwueze was after 15 minutes when he received the ball in the 18-yard area, but his one-time effort was way off target.

Chukwueze, finally, managed to score in the 47th minute. He controlled a Giovani Lo Celso pass well before advancing into the danger zone and unleashing a powerful shot past Fernando Pacheco in the Alaves goal.
