Villarreal are trying to be more powerful in away matches and want to continue their record of winning, they did what they did to Barcelona defeated them in their home, and they are doing the same thing to Real Sociedad, seeing this game like this didn't surprise me because a weak team destroyed a popular and strong teams like Barcelona, definitely their is slight improvement and also have a good record in the last 5 matches, right now nothing can be concluded because the game is still on, right now the goal are 1-2, and they were given 6 minutes extra time hope nothing change after the game, but it's have changed to favour Villarreal by adding one again by A. Sorloth at 95 minutes, making it 1-3.
Not all teams that dominate a match are able to win that match. This was experienced by Real Sociedad today where they really dominated the game with a high percentage of ball possession, total number of shots, shots on goal compared to Villarreal. This was clearly unexpected because Villarreal was very lucky with all their chances, so Real Sociedad really had to regret it.


This represents the difference between the old clubs compared to the new professionals, as the Villarreal team is able to take advantage of the few opportunities it gets, preserving its energy throughout the match in order to invest in those opportunities. Real Sociedad, despite its success in creating opportunities throughout the match, exhausted all its energy without being able to exploit any of them (except for the only goal). It was certainly not an easy match for Villarreal, but it seems that it was much more difficult for Real Sociedad.

In many cases, great physical effort is not required to create opportunities, but rather it can be compensated for by exploiting opportunities accurately and devoting time to defense. This strategy can only be implemented by experienced teams whose coach can evaluate the level of the opposing team and the plan required to win.
